Vivid Events to Light Up Your Week
The Vivid Festival is my absolute favourite event on the Sydney calendar. Each year it seems to get better, grander and more widespread – and 2015 sounds like it will be no exception.
This year, not only will there be spectacular light shows, outstanding entertainment and a music line-up that will blow your mind (Morrissey anyone?!), but organisers are also offering what they call a ‘GAME-CHANGERS TALK SERIES’. These talks are focused on the marketing, design, technology and entertainment industries and are hosted by various ‘game changers’ and leaders in their field.
For anyone who’s a Mad Men or Sopranos fan, a talk will be hosted by the Executive Producer Matthew Weiner, a man who is bound to have some interesting stories and unique advice to share. The founder of one of my favourite magazines ‘Monocle’ – Tyler Brule, will also be in attendance… if anyone knows about what is trending and ‘cool’ right now, it would be this man.
For anyone in the creative or marketing industry, I believe a good injection of inspiration every now and then does wonders, and these talks sound like just the ticket. Vivid events run from 22nd May until the 8th June around Sydney.
