Penrith culture and sport events in September to boost local economy
September 12, 2024

A vibrant mix of signature cultural events and sporting competitions on offer in Penrith from 20th to 22nd September is anticipated to attract over 40,000 residents and visitors to natural landscapes and premier venues - delivering an economic boost to the City.

These events include Council’s signature annual event, Real Festival at Tench Reserve, the Sunset Bash concert at Panthers Penrith, the Red Belly Warriors Knockout competition in Werrington, and the IRONMAN 70.3 Western Sydney competition at the Sydney International Regatta Centre.

Penrith General Manager, Andrew Moore, is proud that Council has played a vital role in securing these diverse events which will benefit the city and provide local entertainment.

Moore noted “these major events will provide an estimated $6 million boost to our local economy by filling hotel rooms and supporting local restaurants and businesses.

“Not only will these events enhance Penrith’s profile as a vibrant and inclusive destination, but they also offer our residents the chance to experience all that their city has to offer right on their doorstep.”

With thousands of visitors and residents participating in these exciting events, Penrith is expected to be bustling.
