On a school night? Don't they have to wake up early tomorrow?
Funny how they didn't protest when they advertised SSM on the Opera House. When it's a horse race and gambling, PROTEST PROTEST THE OPRA HOUSE ISN 'T A BILLBOARD!!!!
Good on you people for getting out there and protesting to stand for what you want. Beats the “keyboard warriors” who bitch and bleat and do nuttin’ Keep making a noise regardless of the result. You make a difference 👊✌️
I hope they win the protest
2000 out of a city of how many people? What a load of tripe
Lol failed miserably.
Vivid is essentially a giant advertising campaign for the companies that put together the light shows and displays etc... Not really much different apart from blatant logos on display rather than reading a plaque or the like....
Great publicity for the Everest
The BRAINDEAD came out to play last nite,weather for the snowflakes, idiots..7NewsSydney channeltennews theboltreport theprojecttv ,no wonder we're called the nanny state
Gotta have something to whine about or it's a lost day.......
Our most iconic cultural centre should not be a billboard for gambling whats next tobacco advertising .shameful .
Why bother? people worry about the smallest things that ain't important.
Pathetic reporting yet again - there is only 200 people there max
If only they had used paint instead of lights...
Nice try Sydney, but Melbourne has you beat when it comes to inane protesting.
Were the morons arrested
Wow
Pathetic. It’s an eyesore fir sure but it’s NOT A BILLBOARD!
Get a life.
Spewing i wasn’t there for the barrier draw and seeing the results on the sails
I don't understand why Sydney people's don't want the government making some money. Your guys are have to glowing up and thinking about your City future more than attacked the government who tried to make some money without use your tax money. GlowUp ScottMorrisonMP
How pathetic Don’t these losers have better things to do with there time !!
Rubber bullets anyone?
Hahahahaha you drips!!!!!
Well done to the protesters. 👍🏻💜
It’s is a great billboard. Done well, bringing tourism and recognition to our great city and spectacular events.
PeriscopeTVNews I think it was a great idea. Looks fantastic.
Wow I’d hate to be running in the byelection for Wentworth next weekend
It’s quite embarrassing that we see that many adults making absolutely fu*kwits of themselves in public ... Go home and don’t show your faces for a while we might forget we saw you!!! Absolute deadbeats!!!
GET A LIFE... SERIOUSLY... all those none lottery, Keno and Melbourne Cup Anti’s. Go and hug a tree

Son of Sydney Opera House architect 'appalled' by advertising on sailsA protest and calls to boycott The Everest have been called by some after the Berejikian government ordered the Opera House be lit up for the horse race. Funded by gambling and since has been used to promote many causes and events from the Mardi Gras to the Olympics and SSM.Why is this event different? I was only thinking what Joern Utzon's family would be thinking. I am appalled. This will set a precedent. Business people own horses. Expect Gerry Harvey's visage on a sail soon --- Gloria has won, AGAIN! Can't agree more. People complain if a mosque or church is spay painted. What is different about this proposal? Stop the Premier from desecrating this icon.

'The right thing for Sydney': Berejiklian defends allowing ads on Opera House sailsNSW Premier was 'absolutely confident' in her decision to order the Sydney Opera House sails be lit to promote next Saturday's Everest horse race. MeganGorrey Absolutely out of touch and unfit for the position. She is an embarrassment and a shame. MeganGorrey She misses the point. I think it’s moved beyond the actual display. It’s more about the abusive and threatening comments from Jones and his apparent power OVER elected representatives. MeganGorrey GladysB really?! Using a heritage building as a billboard and effectively bullying its officials into doing this?!? Everyone I’ve spoken to DOES NOT want this, there is something fishy going on here...

NSW premier defends intervening over racing projections on Sydney Opera HouseThe NSW premier has copped criticism for intervening in a dispute between the Sydney Opera House and Racing NSW after a diatribe from broadcaster Alan Jones. Doesn’t AlanJones have racehorse interests? Good on you Gladys, don’t let the narks and wowsers win. It was built on gambling money, so that argument is out and it’s been used for all sorts of commercial events, sports and political causes, so those arguments doesn’t hold water either. She's an oxygen thief. Hopefully she'll be voted out of Parliament at the next election and sent home. She has put women back a decade with her weakness and 'mummsy' approach to running the State!
