Sydney is set to host ‘Let’s Clean Up Our Backyard,’ a pivotal event that marks a collaboration between Drumstick and Clean Up Australia to foster sustainability and community action.
This initiative perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Sydney, a city known for its vibrant community, stunning beaches, and a strong commitment to environmental conservation.
Sydney Clean-Up 2024: Dates, Locations & What You Need to Know
Scheduled for the 9th and 10th of February 2024, this two-day event is a call to action for all Sydneysiders and visitors alike.
The first day will see Sydney’s Martin Place transformed into a hub of environmental activity, while the second day will take the movement to the sandy shores of Bondi Beach.
These locations are not just iconic landmarks but also represent the diverse landscapes of Sydney that we all love and must protect.
Event Activities: Making Sydney Cleaner, One Drumstick at a Time
Participants can expect a day filled with activities aimed at cleaning up our local neighborhoods.
The highlight of the event is the innovative approach to encourage participation: for every piece of rubbish collected, Drumstick will offer a free ice cream from their special “Let’s Clean Up Our Backyard” flavors – Iced Latte or Choc Raspberry Brownie.
Moreover, a giant Drumstick-shaped rubbish bin will be on site, allowing participants to see in real-time the impact of their efforts on the environment.
How to Join the Sydney Clean-Up Crusade: A Step-by-Step Guide
Getting involved is simple and rewarding:
- Choose your favorite Drumstick flavor,
- Scan the QR code on the pack, and
- Sign up for your Clean Up Australia kit.
This kit is your ticket to joining a nationwide movement that not only cleans up our streets and beaches but also brings Australians together for a common cause.
Drumstick’s commitment, including a $250,000 pledge to Clean Up Australia, underscores the importance of these kits in organizing local clean-ups beyond the event days.

This event is ideally suited for anyone passionate about making a difference.
Families looking for a meaningful way to spend time together, educational groups seeking a hands-on learning experience about sustainability, and community members eager to contribute to their neighborhood’s wellbeing are all encouraged to attend.
It’s a perfect opportunity for anyone who loves Sydney and wants to play a part in preserving its natural beauty.

After contributing to the cleanup, participants can explore the myriad of activities that Martin Place and Bondi Beach have to offer.

Your Green Commute: Accessing Sydney’s Clean-Up Sites

Participants are encouraged to use sustainable modes of transport to align with the event’s environmental goals.
More Ways to Support Sydney’s Environment Beyond the Clean-Up Event
The “Let’s Clean Up Our Backyard” event is just a precursor to the official Clean Up Australia Day on Sunday, 3 March 2024.

Additionally, the Win-Win Raffle offers an exciting incentive, with a major prize of $250K Gold Bullion, further highlighting the community and environmental benefits of participating in such initiatives.
