Magistic Vivid EARLY Cruise - 5:30 PM
When Sydney Harbour transforms into an alluring landscape of dancing lights and colour during the Vivid festival, the Magistic Early evening cruise takes you on the water just as the light installations spark to life. The early departure time is a real benefit for anyone who wants a good Vivid experience without stretching the night too far. Families with young children especially appreciate this timing.
You are welcomed on board with a complimentary drink, and can also bring your own snacks. Additionally, other alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are available for purchase from the bar on board!
From the wide outdoor decks of the catamaran, you can enjoy sweeping views of the lit Opera House, the Harbour Bridge and the vivid trails of colour running across the foreshore.
Photographers, visitors and locals find plenty of vantage points as the vessel moves through the harbour. If the air turns chilly, you can step into the climate-controlled interiors where large windows frame clear views of the illuminated city.
So, for a smooth and enjoyable way to take in Vivid Sydney from the water, this early cruise is a reliable choice. Secure your seats now!

Guest Comments
"Thank you so much to all the staff who made our birthday celebration so memorable. We were really impressed by how helpful, kind and friendly the whole team were, and while we were just one of a number of groups celebrating, they made the time to make it a truly special evening. Vivid and the harbour are of course amazing, always, but its the hospitality that sets this cruise apart from the rest!"
