Vivid at darling harbour this year is wonderful. Definitely make the effort - especially with kids. There's swings, seesaws, kick tennis...it's fun for everyone and super interactive.

Darling Quarter Village Green is essentially a small grassy area located within Darling Quarter. I feel that the rating and recommendation on visiting it depends on whether an activity or event is being held. There are times that the green is vacant, in which case it is really easy to walk past it unnoticed. However, on the occasion that I visited, outdoor movies were being played, so I enjoyed my visit there. The space was sectioned off and secured well. It was nestled amongst the trees and vibrant atmosphere of the eateries in Darling Quarter. I found it to be well located. It was surrounded by convenient facilities.
