Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq

For a cheap date night in the city, Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq is the place to head. The circus-themed bar is a wonderland of big kid fun, boasting bowling alleys, dodgem cars and a VR experience room. Better yet? Arcade games start at just $2 a go, meaning an evening spent here doesn't have to break the bank. 

Holey Moley

Holey Moley is the quirky mini-golf course with some serious attitude, think colourful balls, novelty outfits and sets themed on everything from The Simpsons to Vincent Van Gogh. The 9-hole course here can be played for less than $20 a person, making a great idea for a cheap day out in Sydney.

Looking for free things to do in the city? Why not cool off from the summer sun by diving into one of Sydney's gorgeous public swimming pools. From oceanfront oases to parkland retreats, these crystal clear watering holes are perfect for a day of rest and relaxation.
