Stadium Australia (ANZ Stadium or before that Telstra Stadium) is in the Sydney Olympic Park. As you would expect from a modern stadium, it has many purpose-built wheelchair spaces (with companion seats next to each one). Access is easy from the new train station; a smooth roll (albeit a slightly long 10 to 20 minute one; this can be a bit tiresome if you are seated on the far side). Crowds tend to be large so for some particular events, it can be a good idea to delay leaving the stadium.
