City Sparkle

If there’s something romantic about twinkling city lights, there’s something astounding about city brights. For 23 nights during Vivid Sydney, the cityscape becomes a kaleidoscope of colour. One of Australia’s leading event production companies 32 Hundred Lighting is the creative source of a huge part of this breath-taking spectacle. 

City Sparkle is 32 Hundred Lighting’s vast symphony of light beams that plays across the skyline, dazzling Sydneysiders and visitors alike. This year, the light show incorporates 62 pillars of light and interactive sequencing. Fifteen giant Aquabeams shine from the top of Sydney Harbour Bridge along with innovative ‘sparkle points’ of LED tubes that illuminate the arch and road deck. To complement this beacon, light beams from atop Bennelong Apartments, Overseas Passenger Terminal and Cahill Expressway, with ‘sparkle points’ on 18 separate CBD building rooftops. Another 13 façades are saturated with colour. By linking Sydney’s landmarks, this luminous array offers an unmatched spectacle that can be experienced from vantage points near and far.

32 Hundred Lighting invites visitors into their purpose-built Perspex ‘control room’ at East Circular Quay (with full wheelchair access). Here you’ll find the newly constructed giant, 3D interactive tactile model of all the structures used in City Sparkle. Take your turn to create a unique show of glimmering colours, shining lights and magical memories.
