This Australia Day, we are taking time to Reflect, Respect and Celebrate the diverse and unique country we call home.
Family at Langley Park Thursday is set to hit a high of 32 degrees with nothing but sunshine throughout the day! Make sure you pack all the essentials to keep you protected from our beautiful Australian sun.
Grab your hat, some sunscreen and light, long sleeve clothing if you’re wanting to complete the full look. We recommend applying often throughout the day.
Hydration is key, so make sure you grab a refillable water bottle – you’ll be able to refill at the drinking water stations located on the map . If you’re toting around an esky on the day, fill it with a waste-free picnic and some ice, of course!
Compared to previous Australia Day Skyworks events, the light show will be positioned closer to the Perth foreshore (Langley Park) and less central over the Swan River. For the best experience, the City of Perth encourages viewing the City of Light Show from Langley Park.
The drone element of the light show has not been designed to be viewed from other locations and therefore the images will be reversed, or viewing may be restricted from areas such as South Perth or Kings Park.
If viewed from areas outside of Langley Park, the audience will be unable to hear the narrated soundtrack by Mix94.5 or have access to event facilities. The soundtrack will NOT be played on FM – only on speakers at Langley Park.
City of Light Show presented by Hancock Prospecting Map Mix94.5 is very proud to have produced the soundtrack for the City of Perth’s City of Lights Shows which will be narrated by Pete, Matt & Kymba from The More Music Breakfast Show on Mix94.5.
