BOY GEORGE RETURNS TO SYDNEY WITH EXCLUSIVE DJ SET FOR VIVID MUSIC
International pop icon Boy George will perform a one-off, intimate DJ set as part of Vivid Music on the
rooftop of Darling Harbour’s Café del Mar on Sunday 11 June.
Now in its ninth year, Vivid Sydney is the world’s largest festival of light, music and ideas and features
more than 250 music events. Boy George will perform his DJ set exclusively for Vivid Music, with tickets
on sale today at Ticketbooth, here.
Vivid Music curator, Stephen Ferris, said ““We’re excited to have Boy George, a superstar of such high
calibre, returning to Vivid Music for an incredible night of music and dancing overlooking Sydney’s iconic
waterfront.
“This event was a sell out in 2016 and fans will need to get in quick to secure their chance to see Boy
George spin the decks with his unique style of house music at this one-off, exclusive event.”
Boy George said, “Sydney is like a second home to me. I can’t wait to return and spin some of my
favourite tracks at Café del Mar with the spectacular lights and pyrotechnics of Vivid Sydney shining
behind me.”
