The latest icon of the Sydney Harbour has showcased its latest feature, with a sneak peek of its roof lighting system, offering a glimpse of what the 200-metre-long floating roof will look like when on full display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This impressive installation features over 400 individual light fixtures and more than four kilometres of cabling, with the test performance recently lit up the night sky and demonstrates how over 400 roof cassettes can be individually lit to achieve multi-coloured and moving displays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 200-metre-long floating roof canopy is already the iconic building\u2019s crowning glory and the lighting serves to enhance the market\u2019s iconic silhouette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lighting display will be able to be activated to mark special events and could also be included as part of the much-loved Vivid Sydney festival or upcoming World Cups. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additional public domain lighting will create a welcoming and vibrant environment for the 6 million visitors expected to visit the new Sydney Fish Market every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the unique and spectacular Sydney Fish Market on full display, we can see how Sydney\u2019s skyline will be forever changed, as it was when the Opera House was built in 1973.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under the spectacular lighting display, the roof is an engineering marvel, comprised of more than 400 roof cassettes, and weighing a staggering 2,500 tonnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The building is a testament to cutting-edge engineering and environmental sustainability, utilising sunlight to illuminate upper levels during the day, collecting rainwater for recycling, and generating solar energy for the building\u2019s energy consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new Sydney Fish Market being delivered by Infrastructure NSW and construction partner Multiplex will offer mix of retail and dining, including a fresh seafood market, restaurants and a seafood school, and is expected to open this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
