What is Zara Larsson?
Midnight Sun ripples with confidence and trust. Its storytelling bursts with truth and vulnerability, plumbing the depth and growth of Zara’s artistry and journey over nearly 20 years in the public eye. It’s an album unafraid to show all sides of the 27-year-old: lovestruck, wistful, ambitious, cocky, flippant, and uncertain, often in the same breath. Following on from Zara’s first three albums (2017’s So Good , 2021’s Poster Girl , and 2024’s VENUS ), the album building upon her legacy while taking things back to her roots.

Which nights should you book for Zara Larsson?
Book one night: 23 October 2026. Arrive any time that day — there’s no benefit to checking in earlier, as the show is a single evening event. You’ll want to be settled and ready to head to the venue in the hours before doors open. Since the concert finishes late (support acts extend the runtime beyond the listed start time), plan to stay overnight and check out the following morning.
How do you get to Afterpay Arena?
Hotels beyond walking distance are still well connected: the 526 bus serves Afterpay Arena. Stunning Views Sydney Olympic Park is about 13 minutes away on public transport. Services thin out late — check the last departure before you travel.
All listed hotels are within walking distance of Afterpay Arena, with walk times ranging from 6 to 23 minutes. The closest option is Metawisebnb Executive 2-bedroom Stadium View Apartment W Parking at 6 minutes’ walk. Public transport services thin out late — check the last train or bus departure before you go. Ride-share drop-off is available at the precinct, but queues can be long after the show ends. A train station is within the Olympic Park precinct, but walking remains the most reliable option given the post-event crowd surge.
Where do you eat and drink after the concert?
Several hotels have on-site food and beverage outlets that remain open after the concert ends. Others are near casual dining options in the Olympic Park retail and dining precinct, though hours vary — confirm opening times in advance, as some venues close earlier on weeknights.
What is the area around Afterpay Arena like?
Afterpay Arena sits within Sydney Olympic Park, a master-planned waterfront precinct with wide paths, parkland, and modern architecture. It’s quiet and well-lit at night, with clear signage and pedestrian flow. While not a traditional inner-city neighbourhood, it has dedicated hospitality zones, cafes, and convenience stores clustered near the arena and major hotels. There’s little local street life beyond the venue footprint — it’s functional, safe, and designed for event-day movement.
