Stargazing, classical music and wine combine at this magical Sydney Solstice event. Taking place at the Sydney Observatory over four nights, the event will feature the world-premiere of 'Songlines of Our Universe' — a work by highly lauded composer and Kalkadunga man William Barton.

A collaboration between Barton and musician Veronique Serret, the piece will be performed live and outside, under the stars. While listening to the six-part performance, you can look up at the Milky Way and Andromeda (astronomical objects that inspired Barton's composition) through outdoor telescopes. Plus, there'll be a winter-themed feast with wines and top-notch produce from across NSW.
