Australia’s largest event, Vivid Sydney, was awarded Best Tourism Event at the Australian Event Awards on Wednesday night, capping off another impressive year for the festival of light, music and ideas which just celebrated its 10th anniversary.

Minister for Tourism and Major Events Adam Marshall welcomed the accolade and said it was another coup for the nation’s premier State for major events.

“Vivid Sydney is the cherry on the cake when it comes to the NSW events program and it’s become an unmissable experience for Sydneysiders and visitors alike as our capital city is transformed into a kaleidoscope of colour,” Mr Marshall said.

Destination NSW CEO and Vivid Sydney Executive Producer Sandra Chipchase said, “I am delighted that the immensely positive impact Vivid Sydney has on generating tourism not only to Sydney but also further afield in regional NSW has been nationally recognised.”

Vivid Sydney is the world’s largest festival of light, music and ideas, and is owned, managed and produced by the NSWGovernment’s tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW.
