Vivid Sydney 2018: World’s biggest lightshow enters tenth year

SYDNEY: Let’s speak of the world’s biggest light festival ‘Vivid Sydney’ – it’s artistic, majestic and has been illuminating Sydney every year for a decade.

Entering its tenth year, Vivid turns Sydney evenings into a supreme example of light shows. The curators suggest the visitors to arrive at 6pm.

There is Harbour Bridge decked with neon lights, a light sculpture called Aqueous among the features in the Royal Botanic Garden, and a laser show playing in the skies.

At Barangaroo, an enormous walking puppet was spotted, called Marri Dyin. Vivid Sydney is basically a beauty!

Among last night’s displays, there were Jonathan Zawada’s vibrant, nature-inspired projections on the Opera House sails, as well as illuminations by May Gibbs displayed on the Customs House façade.

Taronga Zoo stayed up late with 290 multimedia light sculptures ranging from bees and bilbies to sharks and tigers.

The ‘Statement pieces’ remain portrayed for 23 nights, and aren’t going anywhere until June 16.

The massive city-turned-canvas managed to attract 2.3 million people last year.
