Great timing this vacation we stumbled on this festival called vivid. The light show on the museum, the cafe on top and all really made our time here. Recommend doing it at the end of your day then kick on to the restaurants in the cruise terminal for great views of the Sydney harbour and the bridge at the end.... More

I always enjoy visiting the MCA - great exhibitions and the gift shop is always worth a look. But my favourite is the new rooftop cafe - really nice food with a great view - manages to avoid that real tourist, overpriced, tasteless food and come up with something special.

This gallery had to very interesting exhibitions while I was there with more opening tomorrow. I downloaded the free MCA app which was a fantastic guide to the museum, giving you more information anout the artworks near to you and also interviews with artists about the works (so take your headphones!) You can make a collection of the pieces you... More

I don't have the words, just go and see, no, EXPERIENCE it yourself. Up there with the best. Will go again.
