The annual Sydney Festival is on full swing. One of the most interesting events especially for book worms and library enthusiasts, is the Sydney Lawn Library, dubbed as “Sydney’s Sunniest Reading Spot.” Enjoy your favorite book reading in the park, under the trees, under a beautiful summer, on a lively atmosphere. This event also offers families with kids to enjoy engaging activities design to stimulate love for books and arts! This is a must see event on the month long Sydney Festival!
