No, you do not require a ticket to attend ‘September in Wistaria Gardens’.
Wistaria Gardens is open and free to visit every day of the year, including in September.
Wistaria Gardens is known for its displays of wisteria and cherry blossoms each September. Greater Sydney Parklands has also planted new garden beds of annuals including violas, snapdragons and primulas.

Limited parking is available nearby within the park, so taking public transport is recommended.
‘September in Wistaria Gardens’ is not a replacement of the Wistaria Fete, which we acknowledge has been a much-loved tradition for the Parramatta community.
‘September in Wistaria Gardens’ is Greater Sydney Parklands' chance to invite the community into the gardens to celebrate spring, enjoy the floral displays and witness the great work the Trust has done so far to revive the gardens since they became part of Parramatta Park in July 2022.
