No other festival in the Southern Hemisphere illuminates a city quite like Vivid Sydney.
As the festival of light, music and ideas, Vivid Sydney flicks on the ultimate light switch and ignites the city with spectacular colours.
It features the lighting of the Sydney Opera House, which sees Utzon’s iconic sails transformed into a spectacular living canvas. Now in its second year, it’s a harbourside artwork that’s grabbed the world’s attention!
The lighting continues with Macquarie Visions, which sees Macquarie Street and surrounding buildings lit up spectacularly, and the anticipated return of The Rocks Fire Water – a dazzling Bollywood-inspired performance that taps into our history with a cast of tall ships, fire and colourful smoke.
EnergyAustralia and Vivid Sydney invite you to take home a little bit of Vivid light for yourself. Collect your FREE torch from Info Booths at Circular Quay (Customs House) and St Mary's Cathedral, open 5.30pm-10.30pm daily, while stocks last!
