Sydney Bar Week will finish with its biggest night of the week on Wednesday 16 September, when the 25th Annual Australian Bar Awards take over Doltone House, Jones Bay Wharf.
Running from 5.30pm to 11pm, the awards bring together bartenders, bar teams, operators and industry leaders from across the country to celebrate the people and venues shaping Australian hospitality.
More than 30 awards will be handed out across the night, recognising the best in the business and marking the grand finale of Sydney Bar Week 2026.
For the first time, tickets to the Australian Bar Awards are also open to the broader hospitality industry, giving more people the chance to be in the room for one of the biggest nights on the Australian bar calendar.
Finalists will receive access to a discounted ticket link, with tickets required for entry.
Expect a full room, plenty of industry catch-ups and the final celebrations of Sydney Bar Week as this year’s winners are announced.
