Top 6 Entertainment Options In West Sydney

West Sydney is a large area with lots to see and do to keep both visitors and locals entertained. Whether you’re looking for something to do during the day or at night, you’ll be spoilt for options in the Western Suburbs district.

In this post, we’ll take a look at some of your best options to keep yourself entertained in Sydney’s outer suburbs.

#1 – Indoor Skydiving In Penrith

Want to experience the thrill of skydiving without jumping out of a plane? Then try your hand at indoor skydiving. It’s fun, it’s exhilarating, much cheaper than doing real skydiving and it’s far less scary.
The indoor skydiving facility at iFLY Downunder gives participants the experience of a freefall dive from 4km above the Earth, without even having to be outdoors. Using a powerful wind generator to lift you off the ground, you can spread your arms and legs and hang suspended in mid-air with the wind in your hair.

It’s a cool and memorable experience for everyone and it’s totally safe. In fact, it’s so safe that even children as young as 3 can give it a try.

#2 – Watch the NRL Grand Final In Homebush

Every year around the end of September or very early October, Homebush Stadium (also known as ANZ Stadium or the Olympic Stadium) in Sydney’s west plays host to the NRL Grand Final.

Whether you’re a fan of the footy or not, just being a part of this spectacular afternoon and evening of thrilling entertainment is something you’ll remember for the rest of your life. Imagine the atmosphere of being surrounded by 80+ thousand excited fans screaming and cheering in the stands as the action unfolds down below.
It’s a true adrenalin rush and well worth experiencing at least once.
