What is Pop Up Parramatta?

We are focused on injecting creative enterprise and infrastructure into unused buildings and spaces in Parramatta. The key aims of the project are:

  • Activate vacant commercial and retail spaces,
  • promote Parramatta, wider Western Sydney and the region
  • connect, build and support creative enterprise.

We match innovative artists, cultural projects and community groups with empty buildings until they become commercially viable or are redeveloped.
