Sydney Australia Events March 2011

Here is a selection of Sydney Australia events in March. They include Chinese art, French movies, Australian fashion, an Indian festival and...YouTube symphony.

First Emperor Exhibition

French Film Festival

Art and Fashion Week in Balmain and Rozelle

YouTube Symphony Orchestra

Festival of Friendship and Harmony

First Emperor - Chinese Entombed Warriors Exhibition

Rush to visit the Chinese Entombed Warriors at the NSW Art Gallery in the Domain.

If you have not seen the exhibition in February, you still have time until 13 of March.

This event is really worth your time. The rich collection of exhibits depicts the story of the First emperor of China, in the Qin region, and brings back a time which was lost in history.

The discovery of the huge terracotta army was totally accidental. Farmers found old pottery objects in 1974 and thought they belonged to their immediate ancestors only to find out that they were about 2200 years old.

An army of archaeologists are still making their way today through 3 pits that are full of beautifully crafted figures of soldiers, horses, chariots, weapons meant to guard the First Emperor in after life. Plus many other decorative objects that are a proof of the superb craftsmanship in those early days.

This is the one exhibition not to miss in Sydney.

Sydney Australia Events - French Film Festival

The Alliance Francaise French Film festival is on from 8 to 27 March at cinemas in Paddington, Leichhardt and Cremorne.

Art and Fashion Week in Balmain and Rozelle

Love fashion and shopping? Then hop on a ferry and go to Balmain for the local Art and Fashion week between 14 - 20 March.

If you're not into fashion then just visit the art galleries and design studios of the two waterside, inner west suburbs. See artists at work, book a drawing workshop or simply relax in one of the trendy cafes.

Sydney Australia Events - YouTube Symphony Orchestra

The YouTube Symphony Orchestra comes to Opera House. Young musicians from various countries uploaded their videos on YouTube and have been voted by the public to play next to Sydney Symphony and other accomplished Australian and international musicians during 15 - 20 March.

Listen to them.

And what can be better than additional free events in various places in Sydney, such as Customs House or Martin Place. During lunchtime or in the afternoon YouTube artists are putting on free shows. Check http://www.sydneyoperahouse.com/whatson/ytso_free_events.aspx to see where and when.

So we had a bit of Chinese history, French taste, Australian designers, international musicians...what other Sydney Australia events can you expect in March? An Indian festival.

Festival of Friendship and Harmony

The Holi Mahotsav Festival of Friendship and Harmony happens at Tumbalong Park in Darling Harbour between 18 - 20 March with a great display of rich garments, mouthwatering food, yoga, dance and music performances.

So a great mix of events, shows, entertainment. And this is just a selection. There is so much happening in this great city. You must visit.
