Vivid Sydney is a 23-day festival of light, music and ideas. Vivid Sydney features many of the world's most important creative industry forums, a mesmerising free public exhibition of outdoor lighting sculptures and installations and a cutting-edge contemporary music program.   This year for the first time, the Taronga Zoo Precinct was opened with an amazing projection mapping display on the Taronga Zoo Heritage Entrance Building and walkway inside the zoo of animal lanterns.   We road tested the event and thoroughly recommend it as away to absorb Vivid without the crowds.   Taronga Zoo: https://taronga.org.au/100-years/centenary-events/vivid-at-taronga   Vivid Sydney: http://www.vividsydney.com
