Community & Partnerships
Aqualand are long time supporters of arts, cultural and sporting organisations across Sydney. Through these partnerships, we believe in giving back to our home city, to help foster vibrant and engaged communities.
South Sydney Rabbitohs
Major Home Corporate Partner (2019 to current)
Since 2019, we have been proudly helping the South Sydney Rabbitohs set a new benchmark in the community, both on and off the field.
We’ve been heavily involved in supporting the club at all levels – from financial support, unique match day activations, and having staff participate in community events such as Souths Cares’ NAIDOC Day. Our focus on forging stronger, more connected communities shares many synergies with the Rabbitohs’ social mission.

Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi is an unrivalled free exhibition of major sculptural works spread over a two-kilometre stretch of Sydney’s coastline, from Bondi Beach to Tamarama, and we have been proud to support this amazing initiative since 2016.
Our long-standing association with Sculpture by the Sea extends to the prestigious Aqualand Sculpture Award, which has been increased to $100,000 for 2023 which is a milestone celebration of 25 years of the Bondi exhibition. The Aqualand Sculpture Award is an acquisitive award that is recognised as the most generous sculpture award in the Southern Hemisphere and one of the most sought after art awards in the world. The recipient will be announced on 20 October 2023 and the artwork gifted by Aqualand for permanent public placement in Sydney.
