Not just pretty, but great shows as well

We all know the beautiful building, but inside are multiple theatre spaces with shows of all kinds (not just opera). Grab a drink at the cafe along the water and plan to see a show. We did the tour which was worth it to hear the struggle of getting it built.

Not to be missed

Booked the tour with the tasting plate followed by a concert in the main concert hall. This is a really good way of seeing this iconic building and to understand what lies behind the design. The tasting platter was excellent and the location of the opera cafe is one of the best in Sydney if the weather is good. The concert hall itself is just amazing with superb acoustics. Worth every penny
