The Sydney Festival of Football was an association football friendly tournament competition hosted by A-League club Sydney FC in 2010, held in Sydney and funded by the Events NSW department of the New South Wales Government.
It was intended to be an annual event, with Sydney FC contracted as the Australian side for 3 years, but poor attendance from Sydney FC fans caused the event to make a loss and plans for future tournaments were scrapped. The event has not been held since and no plans have been made to revive the competition.
The first and only tournament to take place so far occurred from 25–31 July 2010, contested by English Premier League club Blackburn Rovers, Rangers from the Scottish Premier League and AEK Athens from the Greek Super League, who eventually won the tournament.[1]
