The Sydney Skinny

Client: The Sydney Skinny

The Sydney Skinny is a nude swim that has nothing to do with nudity. In 2018 & 2019 Ted & Co. Events have partnered with the Sydney Skinny team to deliver the full operations of this truly unique event. The event has returned in 2023 under new ownership and Ted & Co. Events has delivered the operations of the event.

The Sydney Skinny has nothing to do with being SEEN nude. In fact we go to great lengths to make sure you aren’t seen nude – sarongs being given to everyone as they come out of the water.

It is an all ticketed, no spectator event in a secluded national park where everyone is fully clothed off the beach and the only nudity is on the beach before you dive into the water.  Apart from our ‘Media waves’ 1 & 2, this event is entirely media free.

So why bother making the event nude? Because that is what makes The Sydney Skinny so magical.

It is about personally challenging yourself to step ever-so-slightly outside your comfort zone – in a way that is emancipating. That strips life back to its bare essentials. That forces you to accept your real self. That momentarily frees you from the stifling shackles modern society so often puts on us. And importantly encourages you to break free from your own self-imposed limitations.

Swimming nude is about being honest, fully alive and human.
