Discover a curated selection of Vivid Sydney Harbour cruises designed for those who want a flexible and crowd-free way to enjoy the festival!

Running throughout the festival period, these cruises take you across Sydney Harbour, offering uninterrupted views of the city’s most iconic light installations and illuminated landmarks.

The Magistic Two catamaran, known for its spacious decks and large panoramic windows, focuses on making this an easy and accessible sightseeing experience – perfect for people who want to enjoy Vivid without the hassle of navigating busy streets.

This year, we have three new exciting cruises for you to choose from:

  • Vivid EARLY Cruise (5:30pm)

A great choice for families and early planners, this cruise lets you experience the first glow of Vivid as the city transitions into night. It’s quieter, more relaxed, and ideal if you prefer to wrap up your evening early.

  • Vivid LIGHTS Cruise (Prime-Time)

The most in-demand option, this cruise runs during peak festival hours when the light displays are at their brightest. Expect a lively atmosphere and the best views of Vivid’s major highlights.

Each experience runs for approximately 1.5 hours and includes a complimentary drink on arrival, with the option to bring your own snacks onboard. Cruise past the illuminated landmarks and capture instagram-worthy photos of the festival! 

With several departures available each evening, you can easily choose a time that fits your plans. Browse through the options, pick your preferred cruise and enjoy Vivid Sydney from one of the best vantage points in the city.
