Guys…we don’t want to alarm you but there’s only 2 weeks left of vivid! The city is bright and there’s plenty of great food, drinks and good times to go around. To make the most of vivid we’ve made a list of some of our favourite spots you must swing by before it’s all over!

Into the Blue at Opera Bar 
Opera Bar has teamed up with Bombay Sapphire to take you into the blue at this year's Vivid. One of the most perfect locations to view the specular light installations of the Sydney Opera House, Circular Quay and beyond. With live music, cocktails and their waterside photobooth placed perfectly along the sea wall, with Sydney as your backdrop it's an unbeatable opportunity to capture your VIVID 2022 moment at Opera Bar, see details and book in your spot here. 

Salt Meats and Cheese 
Located amidst all the action, stop by for creative glittery cocktails and Italian eats and enjoy the lit-up skies and panoramic views of Sydney Harbour with a cocktail in hand at Bar Ombré Rooftop. You can even book in to join them for a vivid-inspired cocktail class! See their special menus and book your table here.
