Fly Me to the Moon

Vivid Sydney has landed at Barangaroo, and one of our luminous installations is sending visitors (and their social feeds) into orbit - Fly Me to the Moon.

This magical, larger than life installation by Chinese artist Yanessi Sui invites you to reconnect with your sense of wonder. Known for creating immersive light art that transforms public spaces, Sui brings her unique vision to Barangaroo Reserve with a glowing, interactive moon that’s as playful as it is poetic.

In this installation, a giant, softly illuminated inflatable moon hovers above the stunning Barangaroo Reserve landscape casting a serene glow over the harbour. A swing positioned in front invites visitors to gently sway beneath its light, creating the perfect photo moment as you become the “man in the moon.”

Sui’s work blends multimedia storytelling and interactivity to foster emotional connections between people and place, and Fly Me to the Moon is no exception. It’s more than a light installation; it’s a celebration of curiosity, imagination, and ambition, inviting us to dream big, swing high, and see the world in a more playful light.

Located at Barangaroo Reserve, Fly Me to the Moon is the celestial escape you didn’t know you needed. Come walk among the lights, swing under the moon, and let your imagination take flight.

Fly Me to the Moon is just one of many stunning and unique experiences you can have at Barangaroo as part of Vivid Sydney 2025. Explore them all and plan your visit HERE.
