Vivid Sydney is back for the tenth year, transforming the city into a dazzling creative canvas. The festival is a celebration of the creative industries and renowned as the world’s largest festival of light, music and ideas, and attracted a record 2.33 million visitors last year.

The Harbour City is transformed with its large scale light installations and projections (Vivid Light); music performances and collaborations (Vivid Music including Vivid LIVE at the Sydney Opera House); and creative ideas, discussion and debate (Vivid Ideas), over 23 nights.

According to Adam Marshall, NSW Minister for Tourism and Major Events: “Vivid Sydney is undeniably Australia’s largest event and 2018 promises to entertain, inspire and innovate."

The festival runs until Saturday 16 June.
