As 11 PM June 17 2017 approaches, we prepare to farewell another successful Vivid Sydney. The festival has run continuously over 23 nights and will continue to enthral all the way up to Saturday night. At this time, the lights will go off, the installations come down and it’ll be another year before you’ll Sydney in such splendour again.
Last minute attractions
Net ready to say goodbye? There are a few more highlights to visit, including:

Martin Place
Martin Place is a foodie hotspot where the team from Sydney restaurant Porteño is creating an Argentinian-inspired menu of NSW meats cooked over an open flame fire-pit. Here visitors can also quench their thirst with some of NSW’s best beverages, whilst devouring some of the best food treats the city has to offer, including ‘glownuts’ – glow in the dark donuts!
