If you happened to be around Sydney Harbour yesterday afternoon, and had turned your eyes towards the colossal Harbour Bridge, you might have noticed a rather large group of people making their way to the structure’s highest most point.

It’s not unusual of course — people climb the bridge every day — but yesterday’s climb was a little bit different: waiting at the top of the bridge was producer and Mad Decent label head Diplo, who was about to make history as the first person to DJ on top of the Harbour Bridge.

The producer — who’s in the country for Listen Out — was enlisted by BridgeClimb to celebrate their 21st anniversary of bussing people up to the top of the most famous bridge in the world (sorry Golden Gate). Music Junkee was on the bridge alongside Diplo, and can confirm the experience was totally bonkers; our full report is here.

The full set video will drop early next week, but for now get around this teaser below.

Listen Out kicks off today in Melbourne, and then heads to Brisbane and Adelaide before finishing up in Sydney next week. Alongside Diplo, there’ll be sets from the likes of Flume, Cosmo’s Midnight, Wafia, JPEGMAFIA, and more.
