What do curated cocktails and tasty bites, awesome beats and colourful lighting all have in common?

They’ll be taking over the MCA’s summer pop up bar; Colour Fields this November.

Inspired by the Sydney International Art Series exhibition Pipilotti Rist: Sip my Ocean, Colour Fields will offer you the chance to view the harbour in a different light.

The summer bar is a collaboration between creative studio Scoundrel Projects, the cheerful Future Classic team and Graze Restaurant’s Culinary Edge.

MCA Director, Elizabeth Ann Macgregor OBE said:

“For our third summer pop-up, the MCA is collaborating with some of the best creative talent to produce something that’s bold, ambitious and inspired.”

Celebrate summer in style. Surrounded by the beautiful backdrop that is Circular Quay, enhanced by vibrant coloured lights, you’ll enjoy a hand-picked selection of cocktail classics with a contemporary twist and a range of bites and boards perfect for sharing.
