Vivid Sydney 2024 Sponsorship Expression of Interest

ABOUT VIVID SYDNEY

Vivid Sydney is Australia’s largest event and the Southern Hemisphere’s largest festival of Light, Music, Ideas and Food. Vivid Sydney is owned, managed and produced by Destination NSW, the NSW Government’s tourism and major events agency.

In 2023 Vivid Sydney cemented its position as a leading event in creativity, technology and innovation, welcoming a record-breaking 3.28 million visitors. With an 8.5-kilometre continuous light walk from Circular Quay to Central station, the 2023 program expanded with new city locations, free music programs and talks, and introduced the new pillar of Vivid Food.

Vivid Sydney is continually setting the benchmark for world-class creativity and innovation. The festival has been recognised by the International Festivals & Events Association (IFEA) and received 15 accolades at the 2019 IFEA Pinnacle Awards, including placing Gold in the Grand Pinnacle Category. Vivid Sydney was also voted Australia’s Best Event in 2013, Best Tourism Event in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2019 and Best Cultural, Arts or Music Event in 2017 and 2019 in the Australian Event Awards. In 2022, Vivid Sydney received a further 14 IFEA Pinnacle Awards, and also won ‘Australia’s Best Event’ at the Australian Event Awards.

In 2024 Vivid Sydney will once again transform the Harbour City into an illuminating kaleidoscope of colour for 23 nights. The 2024 program will boast a mesmerising free public exhibition of outdoor lighting sculptures and 3D projections, cutting-edge contemporary music events, innovative creative industry forums and talks at Vivid Ideas, and a dedicated Vivid Food program that will be a feast for the senses.
