Three of Australia’s most popular spectator sports have joined forces to encourage avid sports fans to spend a weekend in Western Sydney.
Spearheaded by the Western Sydney Business Connection and funded by Destination NSW, The Ultimate Weekend will kick-off on 23 March with Longines Golden Slipper Day at Rosehill Gardens, which will feature world-renowned horse Winx at her very last home ground run. On 24 March at Sydney Showground Stadium, the GWS Giants’ will play their opening AFL round against Essendon Bombers, and NRL club West Tigers will play the New Zealand Warriors at Campbelltown Stadium.
Destination NSW CEO Sandra Chipchase said the event provides avid sports fans with the ideal opportunity to enjoy a weekend getaway in Western Sydney.
“Racing, AFL and NRL are among Australia’s most popular spectator sports. To have all three in Western Sydney on a single weekend is a major win for the region; turbocharging local economies and driving investment. I strongly urge sports fans and families alike to make the most of this unique opportunity and head to Western Sydney for this blockbuster weekend,” Ms Chipchase said.
