Getting to ICC Sydney

 

Transport updates

All visitors to the Darling Harbour precinct are advised to take note of the following public transport changes or closures before heading to an event. 

Vivid Sydney - Friday 25 May to Saturday 16 June

Celebrating its 10th anniversary Vivid Sydney returns to light up the Sydney CBD from 6pm to 11pm for 23 consecutive nights, from Friday 25 May to Saturday 16 June. 


Light rail is the best way to get to the Darling Harbour and Tumbalong precinct. The closest stops are Exhibition Centre, Convention and Pyrmont Bay. 

Additional services will run during Vivid Sydney from 19:00 on Friday nights and from 09:00 on weekends (including the public holiday Monday) with services running every 10 to 12 minutes until midnight. 

Services between Central and Pyrmont Bay will be busy, particularly on the weekends, as large crowds travel to the Vivid Darling Harbour precincts so consider the alternate options (including walking if able to and the weather is kind).
