Overview

When it comes to lavish harbourfront experiences, climbing aboard The Jackson — a 60-metre superyacht — is a fledgling summertime tradition. But despite the weather getting a little chillier, the onboard experience is only getting more impressive, with The Jackson set to present an exclusive dinner alongside the Sydney Symphony Orchestra during the height of Vivid festivities.

Spanning two showstopping nights — Saturday, May 23, and Saturday, May 30 — a crowd of 200 guests dressed to the nines will settle in for a three-hour cruise featuring a five-course degustation set menu. Paired with Penfolds wines, vintage drops and high-end spirits, this luxe feast alone offers plenty of reasons to spend an evening on the harbour.

However, the night only gets better, as an ensemble from the Sydney Symphony Orchestra presents a rare and intimate performance for guests aboard The Jackson. Complemented by one of the world's most famous skylines illuminated by Vivid light installations, this exclusive encounter takes luxury in Sydney to even greater heights.

"Vivid Sydney is one of the most exciting cultural moments in the world, and this year we wanted to create something truly historic on Sydney Harbour," says Holly Vaughan, Director of Sales & Marketing at The Jackson Sydney. "It brings together everything we love about this city — world-class artistry, exceptional dining and the magic of the Harbour at night."
