About the event

Light Painting Workshop @ Sydney Opera House

Get ready for a night of creativity, lights, and iconic views! We’re heading to one of the most photogenic spots in the world — the Sydney Opera House — for an unforgettable light painting workshop under the stars.

Join us for a relaxed and fun evening with Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Eric Peng as we explore the art of light painting with Sydney’s stunning harbour, skyline, and the Opera House as your backdrop. Whether you're a beginner or seasoned shooter, it's all about playing with light, learning new tricks, and capturing next-level night shots.

📍 Where: Sydney Opera House (meet at the roundabout end of Macquarie Street)
🎒 Who: Anyone with a camera — all gear and brands welcome!

Expect glowing light trails, sparkling reflections off the harbour, and the Opera House lit up like a dream — the perfect canvas for creativity. Eric will guide you through camera settings, light tools, and composition tips so you can turn ordinary night scenes into glowing works of art.

  • Chill photo session with one of the most iconic views in the world
