Parramatta Lanes is the city’s biggest street party and it’s anything but ordinary.
It’s a celebration of everything that makes Parramatta bold, creative and full of life. Every site has its own vibe, so whether you're chasing golden hour spritzes, gritty punk gigs or surreal late-night moments, there’s something waiting around every corner.
Now in its 13th year, Parramatta Lanes is all about discovery. Explore 20 vibrant festival sites packed with 80+ street food stalls and pop-up bars, eye-catching art installations and international and local music. In 2025 we are raising the bar by completely taking over the multi-storey Eat Street Car Park in the heart of the action.
