For its 15th anniversary, Vivid Sydney 2025 dares to dream with its new theme.

The Sydney Opera House has rarely felt more alive than it does during this year's Vivid LIVE. Across the past week alone, Backseat Mafia has witnessed unforgettable appearances from Mitski, Folk Bitch Trio, Sparks and the formidable pairing of Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE. Yet tonight's performance by Cass McCombs in the Joan Sutherland Theatre occupies a very different corner of the musical landscape. This is the rare opportunity to spend an evening in the company of an artist who has spent more than two decades quietly building one of independent music's most singular catalogues.
