BANKSY LIMITLESS

BANKSY LIMITLESS

Sat, May 23, 10:40 PM
From Wollongong Social Club
4.8

⭐ Banksy Limitless arrives in Sydney following its highly successful London opening. More than an exhibition, this immersive experience amplifies Banksy’s voice beyond walls and borders—bold, uncompromising, and deeply connected to the world we live in. 🎟️ looking to catch the 8:40 ish train up from Wollongong to The Rocks! 🎟️. This event is time-slotted so am suggesting 11:30 am, we can have a coffee while we wait. Afterwards drinks and lunch either at Watsons Bay Hotel or somewhere local like The Argyle. If we go to Watsons Bay, we can also do a short walk to Hornby Lighthouse after lunch and then catch the ferry back. I’m happy with either option and we can work it out on the day. Tickets can be purchased from the following link and cost $47. https://feverup.com/m/570526?cp_landing=cta_tickets&cp_landing_term=cta_tickets&cp_landing_source=banksylimitless&utm_source=direct Highlights 🌟 A powerful immersive exhibition that positions Banksy as a global cultural movement 🌎 An expansive journey through the artist’s ideas, imagery, and social impact 🖼️ Hundreds of artworks and visual elements brought together in a large-scale immersive format 🖌️ A bold, contemporary experience born from the streets and amplified through global culture 🤩 A multi-sensory encounter that goes beyond a traditional exhibition
