The story
The concept of BridgeClimb originated in 1989 when BridgeClimb's Founder and Chairman, Paul Cave, assisted in organising a Young Presidents Organisation World Congress in Sydney, which included a climb over the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Following this event, Cave decided to establish climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge as a permanent attraction. This initiative involved numerous years of collaboration with state and local government bodies, community groups, and various experts on safety, logistics, media, heritage, and conservation matters. After nearly a decade of research and development, BridgeClimb Sydney was officially launched on 1 October 1998. At that time, BridgeClimb became the world's first tourism operator to offer bridge climbing as an experience.
In June 2018 the franchise was awarded to Hammon's Holdings the proprietors of Scenic World for 20 years following a formal tender process.
