THE JACKSON SYDNEY HOSTS FIRST-EVER SYDNEY SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PERFORMANCE ON SYDNEY HARBOUR FOR VIVID SYDNEY
Sydney Symphony Orchestra will perform live on Sydney Harbour for the first time, aboard The Jackson Sydney, as part of Vivid Sydney 2026.
Across two nights - Saturday 23 May and Saturday 30 May - guests will step aboard The Jackson for a curated dining experience paired with a live orchestral performance, set against the illuminated backdrop of Vivid Sydney.
With capacity limited to just 200 guests per night, the series offers a rare opportunity to experience the orchestra on the water, as the super-vessel moves through Sydney Harbour past the Opera House, Circular Quay and the city skyline transformed by Vivid installations.
Guests will enjoy a five-course menu curated by The Jackson’s culinary team, paired with Penfolds wines, while the Sydney Symphony Orchestra performance ensemble captures the light and sound of Vivid.
“This is a unique way to experience both Vivid Sydney and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, which we are honoured to bring to life ” says Holly Vaughan, Director of Sales and Marketing, The Jackson Sydney.
“To host a curated ensemble on the harbour brings together world-class music, dining and Sydney at night in a way audiences haven’t experienced before.”
