Alliance Française de Sydney

The Alliance Française de Sydney is your French language and cultural centre.

The Alliance Française de Sydney is an independent, not-for-profit language and cultural organisation promoting Franco-Australian exchange since 1895. With an ambitious mission to spread the French language and culture well beyond the borders of France, it is one of the 1040 Alliances Françaises existing in 136 countries all over the world.

Situated in the heart of Sydney in an attractive building designed by the famous architect Harry Seidler, the centre offers French courses, holds cultural events and includes a media centre and a French cafe, le Grand Cafe. In August 2012, the Alliance Française has also opened a new branch in Chatswood, offering the same courses as the CBD branch for North Sydneysiders.

Since 1989, the Alliance Française de Sydney has organised the annual Alliance Française French Film Festival. This prestigious festival has become a very important event in Australia with an exponential increase in attendees every year. In 2012, attendees across Australia totalled 130,000.
