Chippendale's late-night warehouse hangout Freda's have worked with Vivid Music curator Stephen Ferris to craft a predictably eclectic lineup of shenanigans for Vivid Sydney 2015.
Kicking off with a technicolour explosion of lights and sound, good times are pretty much guaranteed with opening party Vibe Positive. There's two overseas trips to take, to Japan and Africa — see Rainbow Chan, Ryan Powderly and CORIN spin the synth classics of '80s Japanese pop legends Yellow Magic Orchestra (with matching Japanese-style food and cocktails), and YEVU takes you on a tour through African music (also with paired snacks and bevs).
Odd Waves throw in some new-wave visuals, plus expect appearances from The Cut Silk Dance Band's dizzying disco-meets-house mixes and Freda's 'voodoo bongo jam'-lovin' party crew Jingle Jangle. Align your chakras and bliss out with Celestial Bodies, with A.R.T. Wilson (Andras Fox) playing live alongside Mongolian Horse Fiddler and Throat Singer Bukhu, and DJs Ariane, Long John Saliva, and Wild Sunset.
