Ash Bolland will bring his array of creative talents to light up the Opera House sails with Audio Creatures, Vivid Sydney Lightwalk will return to the Botanical Gardens, and Vivid will also extend to the new Barangaroo precinct including Trapdoor, a series of spectacular illusions that make the ground appear to open up beneath you, revealing a subterranean underworld. Check out the full light lineup here, which is all free and open for everyone to enjoy.
And in the Ideas category, Vivid will host a Masterclass in jewellery making, a human robot friendship ball, a Good Design festival and a talk from AWOL‘s parent company Junkee Media on Gen Z. Check out the full ideas lineup here.
