Jacaranda Season in Sydney: See the Best Streets by Chauffeur
Each spring, Sydney transforms with bursts of violet as jacaranda trees bloom across the city. From harbourside streets to inner-city parks, the purple blossoms offer a scenic backdrop perfect for a relaxed drive, seasonal photos, or a special day out. Evoke’s chauffeur service allows you to enjoy the best of jacaranda season without worrying about traffic, parking or planning.
When Is Jacaranda Season in Sydney?
Jacaranda trees typically bloom from mid-October to late November, depending on the weather. The flowers start to appear just as the days warm up and last for several weeks, with peak bloom often seen in early November.
It’s one of Sydney’s most photogenic times of year, and also one of the most popular. Families, couples, and visitors often plan seasonal outings around jacaranda viewing, with popular streets becoming photography hotspots. Parking near key locations can be challenging, which is where a private chauffeur can make the experience far more enjoyable.
Where to See Jacarandas in Sydney
From the Eastern Suburbs to the North Shore and Inner West, here are some of the top jacaranda spots worth visiting by car:
- McDougall Street, Kirribilli - A famous stretch lined with jacarandas arching over the road.
- University of Sydney, Camperdown - Classic sandstone buildings surrounded by blooming trees.
- Paddington Streets - Terraced homes and purple blossoms make for beautiful contrast.
- Royal Botanic Garden - Combined with a visit to Mrs Macquarie’s Chair and harbour views.
