After a highly successful pilot program in 2022, Big City Lights* returns in winter 2024 for three weekends (Friday–Sunday).
The innovative, self-guided program will showcase immersive audio-visual experiences, large-scale digital works, 3D mapping, and unexpected projection sites, transforming the Gold Coast’s everyday urban spaces.
Big City Lights* will also include live music and performances at various venues and outdoor locations across Southport CBD, enhancing the appeal of this free, family-friendly festival for both locals and drive-market visitors.
