Sydney is set to witness a defining cultural moment this winter as 
The Jackson Sydney presents an exclusive Sydney Symphony Orchestra Dinner series featuring the FIRST ever live performance by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra on Sydney Harbour during the spectacular Vivid Sydney  festival

Says Holly Vaughan, The Jackson Sydney: “Vivid Sydney is one of the most exciting cultural moments in the world and this year we wanted to create something truly historic on Sydney Harbour. To host a curated ensemble from the Sydney Symphony Orchestra aboard The Jackson is incredibly special. It brings together everything we love about this city - world class artistry, exceptional dining and the magic of the Harbour at night.  We are thrilled to bring this experience to Sydney over this incredible time for all.” 

Across two special nights Saturday 23 May and Saturday 30 May -  guests will step aboard Sydney’s most spacious superyacht for a premium dining experience that brings together world class cuisine, live orchestral performance and the illuminated spectacle of Vivid Sydney across Sydney Harbour.

This is Sydney at its most iconic - where arts, culture, light and cuisine converge on the water in one unforgettable experience. With only 200 guests per night this will be one of the most sought after experiences of the season, with seats on-sale NOW!!

Guests will enjoy a refined five course menu curated by The Jackson Sydney’s culinary team, paired with premium Penfolds Wines, while the ensemble from Sydney Symphony Orchestra performs live against the glowing backdrop of the Vivid Sydney night sky. 

As The Jackson Sydney moves through the Harbour, guests will experience uninterrupted views of the Opera House, Circular Quay and the city skyline illuminated by Vivid installations and supported by the Sydney Symphony sound

It is an immersive expression of Sydney at night, bringing together performance, cuisine and the harbour itself in a single experience. This is a rare and exclusive experience designed for those seeking something beyond the expected. With extremely limited capacity and extraordinary creative collaboration, this is a new way to see Vivid Sydney as you have never experienced it before.
