‼️ FIFTEEN YEARS IN THE MAKING ‼️
For the first time ever, to celebrate our birthday, we’re taking over four rooms across the entire @sydneyoperahouse in a single night - a full, immersive takeover designed to flow. In the days leading up, we’ll be teasing the celebration with two events to give you a taste of what’s to come.
Each room is shaped by artists testing limits, paying homage to the greats, bending genres, and redefining how sound moves through space.
A program built to explore, wander and get lost in - a love letter to Sydney and everyone who’s been with us over the past 15 years.
PRESALE: Fri 13 Mar, 9am (AEDT)
GA ON SALE: Mon 16 Mar, 9am (AEDT)

OUR SIGNATURE STUDIO PARTY IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER
A room reserved exclusively for Vivid LIVE, lit up by two artists from entirely different worlds, yet both rooted in scenes that quietly shaped what followed. Artists who stayed close to the original blueprint, allowing the work to speak and time to do the rest.
@tokimonsta , emerging from the LA beats continuum, returns to her hybrid live format, weaving DJing with live performance beats. @djoneman , forged in the world of pirate radio, delivers a sound built for movement and momentum.
Now joined by local Eora selector @b0uk1 .
