Advertise your council or community event to Eastern Suburbs Mums
Eastern Suburbs Mums helps councils, community organisations, event producers and public institutions promote local events to families across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs.
Through event listings, sponsored editorial articles, social media promotion and eNews exposure, your event can reach more local parents beyond the people already following your organisation’s own channels.
Whether you are promoting a free community festival, ticketed performance, school holiday program, market, laneway activation, exhibition, workshop or local celebration, Eastern Suburbs Mums helps families discover what is happening and decide to attend.
Reach local families deciding what to do next
Community events are time-sensitive. Families need to hear about them early enough to make plans, book tickets, organise transport and invite friends.
Eastern Suburbs Mums gives council and community event teams an additional, trusted way to reach parents across Sydney’s East—not only the people already visiting a council website or following an existing social account.
Our audience includes families looking for weekend activities, school holiday programs, markets, performances, festivals, workshops, exhibitions and neighbourhood events.

Help families discover what is happening across Sydney’s East
Parents search for what’s on this weekend, family events near me, school holiday activities, local markets, live performances and community festivals.
Eastern Suburbs Mums can present your event through clear, useful local content that helps families understand what it is, who it is for, when it is happening and why they should attend.
Community festivals and major local events
Build awareness for council festivals, open-air events, major celebrations, community days, fundraisers and seasonal programs. Give families the essential details and a compelling reason to add your event to their calendar.
School holiday, library and family programs
Reach parents looking for story time, workshops, children’s activities, youth programs, library events and school holiday experiences. Promote free sessions as well as activities requiring registration or paid tickets.
Arts, live music and ticketed performances
Promote theatre, live music, outdoor cinema, exhibitions, comedy, dance and public performances. Sponsored editorial can introduce the experience while social promotion helps drive bookings before tickets close.
Community celebrations and cultural events
Share public-facing programs connected with community traditions, cultural celebrations, First Nations events and significant observances. This may include Lunar New Year, Harmony Week, Christmas, Diwali, Eid, Jewish community occasions and other locally relevant programs, presented with appropriate context and respect.
Accessible and inclusive local events
Promote Pride events, accessible activities, seniors’ programs, youth events and initiatives designed to welcome different families, ages and abilities. Clearly communicate access information and who the program is designed for.
Markets, laneway festivals and neighbourhood activations
Reach families interested in farmers’ markets, food markets, makers and artisan stalls, vintage markets, pop-ups, street parties and laneway festivals. Highlight vendors, entertainment, food, activities, location and trading times.
Reach communities across Sydney’s East
Eastern Suburbs Mums reaches families across the Bayside, Randwick, Waverley and Woollahra council areas, including Bondi, Bronte, Clovelly, Coogee, Randwick, Maroubra, Kingsford, Kensington, Paddington, Double Bay, Rose Bay, Vaucluse, Botany, Mascot, Pagewood, Rosebery, Zetland and surrounding communities.
Our readers include different family structures, cultural backgrounds, ages, abilities and life stages, united by an interest in useful local information and things to do nearby.
For council and community event teams, this means an additional way to extend campaign reach, support participation and place event information in front of parents through a familiar local platform.
Go beyond a basic event listing
A basic event listing provides the date, time and location. A sponsored Eastern Suburbs Mums article gives families a stronger reason to attend.
Editorial content can explain what visitors will experience, who the event suits, accessibility, ticketing, transport, food, activities, performers and the local story behind the program.
This matters because families often search for the decision they are making—such as what to do this weekend, where to take the children in the school holidays or which local market is worth visiting—not only the official name of an event.
A larger advertising package can support multiple articles or campaign stages, helping you announce the event, highlight key attractions and remind families before bookings close or the event date arrives.
Frequently asked questions
Why should a council or community organisation advertise with Eastern Suburbs Mums?
Eastern Suburbs Mums gives event organisers an additional way to reach local parents beyond their existing website, subscriber database and social media followers. This can help build awareness while families are actively looking for things to do.
Can we promote free and paid-ticket events?
Yes. Eastern Suburbs Mums can promote free council programs, registration-based activities and paid-ticket events. The content should clearly explain any costs, booking requirements, age guidance and important conditions.
Can you promote markets and laneway festivals?
Yes. Promotion can cover farmers’ markets, food and produce markets, makers and artisan stalls, vintage markets, pop-ups, street parties, laneway festivals and other neighbourhood activations.
Can we promote a cultural or faith-connected community event?
Yes. We can present public-facing celebrations and programs using inclusive, respectful language appropriate to the community and occasion. Sacred or solemn observances should be described with suitable context rather than treated simply as entertainment.
Can Eastern Suburbs Mums create the sponsored article?
Yes. If you provide the event details, approved images, booking link and key messages, Eastern Suburbs Mums can prepare an initial article for review and approval.
How early should we begin promoting an event?
Timing depends on the event and booking cycle. Major festivals and ticketed performances generally benefit from an earlier campaign, while weekend activities and reminders can run closer to the date. A multi-stage campaign can combine an announcement with later reminders.
Will an Eastern Suburbs Mums article help people find our event online?
Clear local editorial content and relevant links can support online discovery in Google and other search tools. Results depend on many factors, so no publisher can guarantee a particular ranking or AI-generated recommendation.
