Joji at Afterpay Arena, Saturday 14 November 2026: Doors 7pm, Robbie Williams Next Door, $40 Parking (Sydney, NSW)

Sydney Olympic Park will be busy on Saturday 14 November 2026, the night Joji plays Afterpay Arena, because about 60,000 Robbie Williams fans are also travelling to Accor Stadium next door, according to Transport for NSW. Doors open at 7pm, the show starts at 8pm and it finishes at 10:20pm. Trains run regularly to Olympic Park from Lidcombe, and the venue is a short walk from the station. Sydney is on daylight saving time (AEDT) in November, so all times here are Sydney time.

This guide is based on the Transport for NSW event page, read on 8 November 2026. For the concert next door, see our Robbie Williams at Accor Stadium guide.

What time does the show start and finish?

Time	What
7pm	Doors open
8pm	Start
10:20pm	Finish

The show is on Saturday 14 November at Afterpay Arena, Sydney Olympic Park, as listed on the Transport for NSW page. The page does not name a support act or give separate times for one, so we have not either.

Does my ticket cover public transport?

The page does not say it does. Transport for NSW says you need an Opal card or a contactless payment card or device when travelling on public transport to and from the event, and suggests registering your details online or in the Opal Travel app ahead of time. If you have a contactless-enabled American Express, Mastercard or Visa debit or credit card, or a linked device, you can tap on and tap off at Opal card readers on all public transport. Adult Opal fare pricing applies, and you receive Opal benefits, including daily and weekly fare caps. Transport for NSW also says to top up your Opal card before you travel, online or at an Opal retailer, to avoid waiting in line at top-up machines. For the fare rules, see our Opal fares guide.

Which train do I catch?

The closest station to Afterpay Arena is Olympic Park. Trains run regularly to Olympic Park from Lidcombe, and the page says additional express trains run from Central for the Robbie Williams concert that Joji fans can take advantage of; it gives no times for them on this page. If you are on Sydney Metro, the M1 line runs turn-up-and-go services between Tallawong, Chatswood and Bankstown from early morning until late; change at Central for an express train to Olympic Park, or at Epping or Bankstown for trains towards Lidcombe, then Olympic Park.

What trackwork affects trains on Saturday 14 November?

Planned trackwork may affect how you travel to and from the event, and the page says to plan ahead with the Trip Planner. Most of it ends in the morning, well before the show.

Which buses, ferries and light rail connect?

Transport for NSW lists three route buses towards Olympic Park. Route 525 runs between Parramatta and Lidcombe; connect with trains to continue to Olympic Park. Route 526 runs between Strathfield and Rhodes Shopping Centre via the Sydney Olympic Park precinct and wharf. Route 533 runs between Sydney Olympic Park and Chatswood via Rhodes and North Ryde.

The closest ferry stop is Sydney Olympic Park Wharf. The 526 bus connects to the venue, or the page puts the walk at about 40 minutes (3.6km). F3 Parramatta River services run regularly to Olympic Park but are very popular and may reach capacity, and low tide between Parramatta and Rydalmere may mean buses replace them.

Light rail line	How to reach Olympic Park
L1 Dulwich Hill	Change at Central for express trains to Olympic Park
L2 Randwick and L3 Kingsford	Change at Central for express trains to Olympic Park
L4 Westmead and Carlingford	Alight at Parramatta Square and take a train towards Lidcombe from Parramatta station, then Olympic Park

All four light rail lines run regularly from 5am to 1am daily, according to the page.

Can I park at Sydney Olympic Park?

Yes, with a booking. Transport for NSW says to pre-book parking online, available until 11:59pm the night before the event unless sold out earlier, and that a flat rate $40 parking fee applies. With a pre-booked space, follow staff directions and have your parking ticket ready at the car park entry. Without one, follow the variable message signs within Sydney Olympic Park to the best available casual parking. Carpool with your group and allow plenty of additional travel time. The page warns that parking will be in high demand because 60,000 people are also travelling to the precinct for the Robbie Williams show, and that anyone who needs to drive must pre-book online in advance.

Traffic may be heavier than usual on roads approaching the precinct as people travel to and from the show, and the page names the M4, Parramatta Road, Homebush Bay Drive and Concord Road. Live conditions are on Live Traffic NSW. Sydney Olympic Park Authority may close some local roads to accommodate extra public transport and keep pedestrians safe; the page gives no list and points to the Sydney Olympic Park interactive map, which we have not seen. The page lists these closures for Saturday 14 November.

How do I get there from where I live?

Starting point	What the page says
Central or the Inner West by light rail (L1, L2, L3)	Change at Central for trains to Lidcombe, then Olympic Park
Parramatta or Westmead (L4)	Alight at Parramatta Square and take a train towards Lidcombe from Parramatta station, then Olympic Park; route 525 also runs between Parramatta and Lidcombe
Chatswood, Rhodes or North Ryde	Route 533 runs between Sydney Olympic Park and Chatswood via Rhodes and North Ryde
Strathfield or Rhodes Shopping Centre	Route 526 runs between Strathfield and Rhodes Shopping Centre via the precinct and wharf
Tallawong, Chatswood or Bankstown by Metro	Take the M1; change at Epping, Central or Bankstown for trains towards Lidcombe, then Olympic Park
Parramatta River by ferry	F3 services run regularly to Olympic Park but may reach capacity

Whichever way you go, the page asks you to plan your trip and consider all the available travel options ahead of time, and to allow extra travel time.

How do I get home after the show?

The show finishes at 10:20pm. The page says trains run regularly to Olympic Park from Lidcombe, and that all four light rail lines run regularly until 1am. It gives no train times for the trip home, so check the Trip Planner before you go; Robbie Williams fans will be leaving at the same time. If you are using a taxi or rideshare, choose a pick-up location away from the immediate area around the arena, as the page suggests.

Where do taxis and rideshare go?

The nearest taxi rank is on Herb Elliott Avenue near the Pullman Hotel. Roads may be closed within the precinct, so allow plenty of extra travel time before and after the show. When leaving, choose a pick-up location away from the immediate area around the stadium to avoid delays.

Is there accessible travel?

Transport for NSW says accessible trips are shown in the Trip Planner with the wheelchair icon. Select “accessible services only” in the options and the planner shows only trips with accessible train platforms, ferry wharves and buses.
