BRINGING THE HARBOUR TO LIFE FOR VIVID 2015

THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO BECOME AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE GALAXY OF LIGHTS THAT IS VIVID SYDNEY – AND TAKE PART IN A UNIQUE DIGITAL ACTIVATION OF THE HARBOUR THAT HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE.

Sydney Princess Cruises are one of the preferred operators that will be on display on the Harbour throughout Vivid. You are virtually guaranteed the “Best” seat on the harbour. This is a highly limited opportunity for you to take part in only a select group of vessels and be a part of the festival.

Grab your colleagues, friends, and family for a spectacular evening on the harbour as the city is transferred into a visual spectacle to behold. Each night from the 22nd May - 8th June 2015, The Jerry Bailey will be cruising past the spectacular Sydney Opera House Sails, the visual feast of Customs House in The Rocks and National Maritime Museums enormous light display on its roof. These are just some of the amazing sights you will experience during Vivid Sydney.
  • Multiple outdoor viewing areas for great photo opportunities
  • Fully licensed bar onboard
  • Families welcome
  • 20 metre catamaran with indoor and outdoor seating
  • This cruise gives you the option to get off in the city precinct so you can visit some of the land based VIVID displays and then rejoin the boat later to take you back to the King St Wharf 8 or you can choose to stay in the city and make your own way back. (Additional charge of $5.00pp if you will be getting off and rejoining the boat).
  • Delicious international street food buffet & complimentary drink on arrival.

This year Vivid Sydney - owned and managed by Destination NSW, the State Government’s tourism and major events agency - plans to light up the Harbour itself – more specifically, Sydney Princess Cruises’ MV Jerry Bailey will play an active part VIVID Sydney Harbour Lights.

The MV Jerry Bailey will be operating multiple cruises nightly and be decorated with brilliant, colour
-changing lights – and be programmed to have all the lights change colour simultaneously as the vessel enters designated harbour precincts.

Vivid Sydney is now Australia’s largest event – a unique festival of light, music and ideas, featuring a mesmerising free public exhibition of outdoor lighting sculptures, a cutting edge contemporary music program, many of the world’s most important creative industry workshops and forums, and of course, the spectacular illumination of the Sydney Opera House sails.

The colours themselves are controlled by pre-programmed GPS-enabled computerised SAT/NAV lighting kits that will be fitted to the boat. The lights are a new product called LED Tape, which is ten times brighter than Rope-Light.

This is your chance to become an integral part of the galaxy of lights that is Vivid Sydney – And take part in a unique digital activation of the Harbour that has never been rolled out before.
