Best of VIVID

 



My favourite of VIVID this year was Barangaroo House. It was so simple but so beautiful.

I'm very disappointed I missed a lot of VIVID due to COVID but glad I still have a crack at Lightscape with the extended time. (it runs for the school holidays too as does Dark Spectrum).






I also really enjoyed VIVID House - the immersive film screening to music. My favourite moment was when this appeared:

The whole room audibly gasped in unison at the beauty and it made me (and many others) smile at the shared delight. It gave a strange sense of community at this shared experience. 







For those of you overseas, if you can't come to Australia in Summer, VIVID is definitely the winter time to visit. There's so much to see and do, a lot of it free. And it never fails to enchant me, and I go every year!


Do you travel for festivals and events? 
Also linking with #AwwMondays because when the arctic landscape appeared, the whole room went Awww in unsion.

    Absolutely amazing! It reminds me of the Van Gogh Immersive Experience I saw in Dubai last year.

    Wow that looks amazing - but if I have understand it right - it´s over in Australia - almost the same name - but too far away from Austria.
    All the best

    Because this is in your 'backyard' it is so much easier to access. I have visited Vivid in 2013 with a granddaughter and then in 2019 on a very crowded ferry where everyone was jostling for photos. I think on the ground is good but I was always concerned about crowds and finding a loo! That's me.....

    Hi Lydia - I'd LOVE to see VIVID - every year I see other bloggers post pics from it and it just dazzles me. We haven't been over East since pre-covid and won't get there again for a while - but I'm definitely going to see VIVID one day so I can tick it off the bucket list I don't actually have :)

    That looks beautiful Lydia. I've been to the Van Gogh Immersive event, and this reminds me of it. As far as I know we don't have anything else in Arizona like that. Thanks for sharing. :)
