Air New Zealand has announced a special event called SYNTHONY in the Sky, which will take place on board Flight NZ1331 from Auckland to Sydney on Thursday, December 4, 2025. This initiative aims to combine air travel with a live music experience at 30,000 feet.
The flight will feature performances by Shapeshifter (DJ set), DJ Dick Johnson, and other guests associated with SYNTHONY. Passengers will be able to attend a live electronic dance music and classical orchestra concert during their journey across the Tasman Sea. Each ticket also includes access to SYNTHONY No.5 at the Sydney Opera House Forecourt on December 5.
Air New Zealand Chief Commercial Officer Jeremy O'Brien stated, "We're not just flying you across the Tasman. We're flying you straight into the heart of a one-of-a-kind music experience offering a completely unique onboard moment – an immersive, high-energy celebration at altitude.
