Neon Dreams

A 1979 mail plane has landed at the Pier Street underpass in Darling Harbour, touching down to deliver Neon Dreams by Trolley'd, a retro-futuristic roller disco diner, exclusively for Vivid Sydney. Featuring Shannon Martinez, the revolutionary force behind plant-based dining in Australia, dive into a dreamscape of bold American flavours, vinyl-only beats, roller skates, and foraged botanical cocktails.

Experience Shannon’s ultimate plant-based take on classic American diner staples. Juicy burgers, crunchy, fluffy fries, creamy mac & cheese and jelly donuts—all crafted with Shannon’s signature focus on big, unapologetic flavours.

Post (or pre) feast, glide onto the roller rink—an airline-themed fantasy complete with a grounded mail plane turned DJ booth—and skate to beats spun by Bob Gherkin. Whether you’re a seasoned skater or a total newbie, the rink welcomes everyone—plus, it’s fully accessible for wheelchairs and mobility aids.

Thirsty? The Trolley’d bar is shaking up low-waste, foraged cocktails and retro milkshakes, using ethically sourced ingredients and native botanicals—expect sips like lemon myrtle margaritas and Illawarra plum sours.

Keen to strap on some skates? Grab a ticket, BYO skates and safety gear, or borrow ours (no extra cost for ticket holders) and roll into the action. Just want a delicious plant-based feed? No ticket needed—rock up, fill up and soak in the retro vibes.
