Darling Harbour Nightclubs

Luminous Darling Quarter
Luminous is the world’s largest interactive light display, comprising 557 multi-coloured LED lights set across the facade of the building overlooking Darling Quarter. On Fridays and Saturdays, you can control the entire display yourself via the interactive consoles on the nearby village greens.

Walk across the Pyrmont Bridge
Pyrmont Bridge across Cockle Bay is one of the oldest operating wingspan bridges in Australia and was built over a century ago. Today over 5 million pedestrians cross it every year, because it offers the best view of Darling Harbour at night across the harbour to the city’s twinkling lights.
