Hoopla Happenings at Sydney's Darling Harbour

March 7, 2008 at 9:25 AM | by amandak | 0 Comments

Easter's coming early this year, and in Sydney as well as hunting for chocolate Easter eggs or greeting the Easter bilby (the Australian animal version of the Easter bunny), they'll be celebrating the Darling Harbour Hoopla Festival as well.

Hoopla is a circus and acrobatic festival that will see performers juggling, busking, abseiling and doing aerial stunts and slapstick comedy routines at many locations around the Darling Harbour precinct, all for free, and it sounds like a good laugh and a lot of fun.

The hotels from the Accor group which sit around Darling Harbour are all getting involved in the Easter Hoopla by providing special packages during March to May, but focused on the Easter celebrations. You can stay at the Hotel Ibis Darling Harbour, the Novotel Sydney Darling Harbour or the Grand Mercure Apartments One Darling Harbour and get special rates, including breakfast, with the cheapest being A$179 (US$165) a night for a double at the Ibis, moving up to A$399 (US$370) for two at the Grand Mercure Apartments.

The Novotel, which we've stayed at several times and consider pretty good value, comes in at A$219 (just over US$200) for two adults and two children, and we're especially excited about their Easter Sunday chocolate-themed brunch.
