Last year, Vivid Sydney 2022 was an instant success that centred around the theme— ‘The Soul of Our City.’ The Vivid Sydney lights segment featured ‘Lighting of the Sails', ‘Endless Love’, ‘Ephemeral Oceanic’, ‘Convergence’ and so on. No doubt, our Vivid Sydney Magistic Harbour Cruises turned out to be the ideal vantage point for all these spellbinding spectacles on the harbour.
In 2023, Vivid Sydney is all set to amaze you like never before. Other than amazing elements such as the First Light and the Lighting of the Sails, witness a new spellbinding experience–’Written in the Stars’ which can be enjoyed from one of our cruises–the Vivid Lights Magistic Late Harbour cruise. The biggest drone show in the Southern hemisphere will light up the night sky over Sydney Harbour and transport you on a magical journey through the celestial wonders of our solar system.
Book Now for this visual Vivid Lights treat before the seats run out! The Vivid drone show, ‘Written The Stars’, officially ended on 14 June 2023 and can longer be experienced from the Magistic.
