Fort Denison, that island oasis in the middle of Sydney Harbour that you haven’t visited since your year seven school excursion, is set to become Sydney’s newest music venue.

That’s the idea behind the summertime Sunset Sessions being held at Fort Denison Restaurant, which also happens to be one of Sydney’s prettiest dining spots. From this Sunday November 29, extended ferry services will operate from Circular Quay, perfect to facilitate a sunset dinner or Sunday lunch outing.

To help wash down the drinks and eats, music will be provided by the resident DJ and saxophonist, Zak. You can expect a dose of R&B and acid jazz – hopefully just the start of a growing music program on Sydney’s fortress island.

Fort Denison’s Sunset Sessions program and bookings are available at the official website.
