VIVID Sydney - Lovin' Life


Day time I'm still snowed under and overwhelmed but night time, I'm out and about and loving life! VIVID showcases our beautiful city in a way that gets people on the streets, happy and with a sense of community. The light shows combine animation, art and music, and the kids will love it as much as the adults...while I've crossed off two venues, I have 2 more weeks to make the most of the other locations. I just need this weather to hold out!



My favs so far have been the wings and the music cubes at Central Park (could have made beats for hours!) and the stomach lurching 'roller coaster drop' at Cadmans Cottage.




For three weeks in Sydney, it's impossible not to love life!



Linking with MakroTex on Spicy Colours....because Vivid is when our city gets spiced up....

  2. My plans for seeing Vivid tonight are on hold due to the weather. If it clears up abit I might see it in Chatswood rather than traipse into the city. I'll have to go to the city next weekend.

  6. Vivid is AWESOME! We were lucky to be right in the midst of it on the first evening - watching from The Star Room at Darling Harbour. Amazing! We also get to see the Bridge light up every night. Love this city!

  20. How do they do that? Are the different colors projected on the buildings somehow? I've never seen anything quite like that!

  24. I gave up on Vivid a few years ago. Yes the lights are beautiful but I just can't stand the crowds. way too many people for my comfort. Glad you enjoyed it though.
