Mega fans have queued outside a Sydney stadium since 5am for Harry Styles’ performance on Friday, as the international pop sensation gets ready to conclude the Aussie leg of his global tour.
Styles landed in the Harbour City on Wednesday ahead of his first gig at Accor Stadium on Friday night.
Fans eager to snag a spot close to the stage queued up outside the stadium from 5am, despite venue officials prohibiting crowds before 8am. Concertgoers have, however, been warned to brace for showers throughout the day, with rain expected to fall into the afternoon and evening. On the ground at Sydney Olympic Park on Friday morning, Sky News Australia reporter Samantha Foxon spoke with fans who were finding ways to keep busy as they waited for doors to open at 5pm.
