Soft Future Piano Bar

Overview

Goodgod is teaming up with Vivid LIVE this year, transforming the Northern Foyer of the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall into the Soft Future Piano Bar — a 'sustainable concept bar' that focuses on a zero waste philosophy and laid-back vibes.

This new space will build on the successful Deep Purple Pool Hall of the previous two years and offer a little festival paradise that invites patrons to enjoy a chilled out space away from the Vivid mayhem outside. The nightly soundtrack will include minimal synthwave, ambient jazz and Balearic sunset vibes, as well as special guest DJs and performers.

What really makes this bar standout, though, is its minimal footprint mentality. The furniture will be custom-made from recycled tyre inner tubes and selected to be repurposed after the pop-up is done. For food and drink, think natural wines on tap and slow-cooked meats and charcuterie served in reusable tableware. All food waste will be naturally composted in collaboration with Events by Aria, with the end goal of no more than one bag of food going to landfill.

Of course, the bar also has the added benefit of being located front and centre in the world's largest festival of light, music and ideas, boasting panoramic views of Sydney Harbour. The space will be open daily for Vivid LIVE from May 26 through June 4, 6pm until late.
