White Bay Power Station becomes new home of the 2024 Sydney Biennale

Wednesday 01 November 2023

Inner West Council welcomes the announcement that the new home of the 2024 Sydney Biennale will be the White Bay Power Station precinct.

“We've fought for years to have White Bay Power Station converted into an arts and cultural venue,” said Mayor of the Inner West Council, Darcy Byrne. "With the arrival of the Biennale in March 2024 that vision is coming to life."

The Biennale is the perfect partner to launch this exciting new creative precinct.

The site, which is three-and-a-half times the size of Barangaroo, can become the new jewel in the crown for Inner West arts and culture activities.

Thanks to the NSW Government's support and Placemaking NSW's extensive remediation of the site, the Biennale of Sydney's Ten Thousand Suns will take place from March 9 to June 10, 2024 with free admission for all.

Inner West is working with the Biennale to curate and expand our EDGE program of site-specific artistic installations, community and cultural activities at White Bay as part of the 2024 Biennale.

Inner West Council is currently accepting EOIs for artwork proposals for Edge White Bay 2024. Find out more info here: Opportunities for artists - Inner West Council (nsw.gov.au)
