Time Out says

Tune into live DJ beats in front of the Opera House for the ultimate Sunday sesh

Who doesn’t love a smooth Sunday sesh down by Sydney’s beautiful harbour? Now you can bliss out and unwind by the water’s edge as Picnic reignites its much loved Picnic Social sessions at Opera Bar. They have programmed our city’s most talented, emerging and established live acts and DJs. 

They're paying forward the rainbow energy with a Mardi Gras encore on March 14 with Stereogamous, Gaff E, Ayebatonye and more queer artists. Across the line-up, you can enjoy some of the most spectacular views in the world while listening to the likes of Simon Caldwell, Grand Jeté, Caravan, Freda's darlings Carla Uriarte and DJ Salami, Melbourne mate Noise in My Head spinning the decks as well as a smorgasbord of live performances from folks including local three-piece the Goods and multi-instrumentalist Marco VellaWhether you’re into sweet soul sounds, disco dreams refound or thrashing post-punk pounds, there’s a little something on offer for everyone.

Picnic has curated Harpoon Harry's for three years as well as dance festival Maximum Joy, and has been throwing parties for over a decade with shindigs for Peggy Gou, Lena Wilkins and Jayda G. So that’s Sundays sorted for the foreseeable. All you have to do is get a group of buddies (or treat yourself) and settle into the Opera House between 3pm to 10pm every weekend.
