Sydney Festival banks on NAB

NAB has again joined forces with the Sydney Festival for 2007 as the Official Bank of the Festival and major sponsor of the spectacular culminating event, the NAB Ferrython on Australia Day.

The Sydney Festival (6 - 26 January) is a three-week celebration of summer and includes performances from acclaimed national and international artists. It's Australia's largest and best-attended annual cultural event featuring theatre, music and dance.

The 2007 Festival will be the most extensive in its 31 year history, with a diverse range of events, including classical and contemporary music, theatre, dance, circus, drama, visual arts and public lectures. 

This year also marks the 31st anniversary of the Ferrython.  On January 26, four sponsored Sydney Ferries will race across Sydney Harbour for the coveted Lord Mayor's trophy.
