Accor Stadium, located in Sydney Olympic Park, is a world-class venue home to the Canterbury Bulldogs and South Sydney Rabbitohs. Just 30 minutes from Sydney’s CBD and 15 minutes from Parramatta, the stadium seats 80,000 and has hosted iconic events across six sports. Public transport options, including frequent trains and buses, make it easily accessible, while pre-booked parking is recommended for major events.
Originally built to accommodate over 110,000 spectators, Accor Stadium was reconfigured in 2003, reducing its capacity to 83,500. This transformation allowed it to host six professional sporting codes—Rugby League, Rugby Union, Football, AFL, American Football, and Cricket. Accor Stadium has since welcomed nearly 31 million fans, witnessing some of Australia’s most iconic sporting moments.
