We are thrilled that Vivid Sydney 2024 artwork Barani has become a permanent part of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s First Nations programming. Barani was projected onto the museum’s rooftop as part of the Southern Hemisphere’s largest multi-artform festival. Vivid Sydney is owned, managed and produced by Destination NSW. The theme of the 2024 festival was Humanity, it aimed to foster connections, spark imagination and showcase the multitude of ways creativity enriches our lives. Barani uses First Nations wisdom to connect people more deeply with the world around us. The artwork runs continuously in the museum’s Bamal Yarning Space.

Destination NSW is partnering with Cricket Australia to secure international men’s and women’s cricket matches in Sydney over the next seven years, including the New Year’s Test Match. The ‘Summer of Cricket in Sydney’ initiative will provide marketing and partnership support for the international men’s New Year’s Test Match, as well as women’s international Test matches, men’s and women’s One Day International matches and T20 International matches, ensuring a full calendar of international men’s and women’s cricket matches for Sydney each year until 2031. The New Year’s Test is an event steeped in tradition for local, regional and international cricket fans who make the journey to Sydney each year to attend the event. It has become more than just a cricket match, it’s the home of the Pink Test, which plays host to Jane McGrath Day, an important fundraising fixture for the McGrath Foundation to deliver more breast cancer nurses across Australia. The landmark agreement with Cricket Australia will provide a significant boost to the NSW visitor economy, elevating Sydney’s position as the nation’s premier destination for major sporting events. #feelnew #feelnsw #visitoreconomy #destinationnsw #feelnewsydney
