Sydney Welcomes the Barmy Army for the 2029-30 Ashes Test

The Sydney New Year’s Ashes Test begins only a few days after NYE in January 2023 — the fifth and final showdown of the series. As the Barmy Army brings its songs, spirit and cricket pride to the SCG, Sydney opens its arms (and its bars) to our English mates.

Here, the rivalry is fierce on the field but friendly off it. Between the sunshine, the skyline and the sea breeze, you’ll soon see why locals say — you haven’t truly been to Sydney, or Australia, until you’ve been out on the Harbour.

So before or after the day’s play, do what Sydney does best: get on the water. Explore Sightseeing and Dining Cruises with Captain Cook Cruises, the Harbour experience locals trust for over 55 years.

Book your Harbour adventure well in advance — it’s the ultimate Sydney experience!

What to do before and after the day's play?

When in Sydney, do what the locals do and head to the Harbour!
