In a first for Vivid LIVE, the Sydney Opera House’s outdoor northern peninsula becomes the setting for a unique party with Future Classic celebrating their 10th anniversary. Initially conceived as a vinyl-only imprint for cutting edge electronic music, the Sydney label has redefined ‘the Australian sound’. Evolving from an after-hours passion project to guiding the likes of Flume and Chet Faker to the giddy heights of international acclaim… collecting more than a handful of ARIAs along the way. The celebration took place over two intimate winter nights, spearheaded by Flume in his only Australian concerts for 2015. Under the Lighting of the Sails the Future Classic stage it featured Flight Facilities, Seekae, George Maple, Hayden James, Touch Sensitive, Wave Racer and Charles Murdoch.
