Light Up The Cross 2025 – A Month of Culture, Creativity & Nightlife in Kings Cross Potts Point -

This November, Sydney’s most iconic entertainment district comes alive like never before — vibrant, creative, and full of possibility.
Light Up The Cross is a month-long celebration of culture, food, music, art, and community — transforming Kings Cross into one of Sydney’s most exciting nightlife destinations.

From 1–30 November 2025, the precinct will be packed with special events, performances, pop-ups, collaborations, and one-off experiences across more than 50 venues. Kicking off with the
Sydney Streets Festival in Macleay St and our official launch party at Pelicano, this campaign invites you to rediscover Kings Cross as you’ve never seen it before.
