Vivid Sydney Cruises at Sydney Harbour

Sydney is once again transforming into a bustling canvas of light installations, projections and live performance this winter for Vivid Sydney. And for a view that’s anything but ordinary, Sydney Luxury Cruise is offering an elevated Vivid experience aboard one of its luxury private vessels, drifting through the heart of the harbour as the lights change and glow all around you.

Running throughout Vivid Sydney from Friday May 22 to Saturday June 13, the cruises pair uninterrupted views of the illuminated Opera House, Harbour Bridge and skyline with the comfort and exclusivity of a tailored private charter.

Choose from four premium vessels, each with a distinct onboard atmosphere suited to everything from romantic evenings and family celebrations to corporate entertaining and group events. And unlike crowded public cruises, every experience is entirely private, allowing you to customise your evening while taking in the festival from one of the city’s best vantage points. 

Depending on your cruise, packages can be for up to four, six or 12 people. Longer rides are also available. Find out more and book your private charter online.
