An annual crowd favourite, Ferrython sees thousands of spectators line the shores of Sydney Harbour to cheer on four of the city’s iconic Emerald Class ferries as they compete for honours in a race across the waves.
Four ferries will race from the starting line of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, completing two laps around Fort Denison vying for line honours at the Sydney Opera House.
The ferries taking part in 2025 are May Gibbs, Catherine Hamlin, Bungaree and Fred Hollows. Each boat will be brightly dressed in honour of their namesake.
To catch the action and support the ferries as they speed by, head to one of the many free vantage points. Best spots include Mary Booth Reserve, Circular Quay, Hickson Road Reserve, Campbells Cove, Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney Opera House and Mrs Macquarie's Chair.
