Operas in Sydney

Everything! Front row with the orchestra is another level of entertainment. The cast was exceptional, the venue, stunning . Our first time in Sydney Australia and the Opera...what an outstanding way to visit Sydney. Thank you

It was an honor to see the opera at the world-renowned "Opera House," and that alone makes it an unforgettable experience! If there’s one thing I regret, it’s that I should buy tickets a little earlier next time... I guess that’s it? It was a perfect opera.

Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour’s production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera is a spectacular fusion of grand-scale theatre and iconic waterfront staging. The soaring vocals, dramatic set design, and dazzling harbour backdrop create an unforgettable atmosphere, while the fireworks and immersive visuals elevate the classic story into a uniquely Sydney experience. Though the large outdoor venue can soften some emotional intimacy, the sheer production value, orchestra, and breathtaking spectacle make it a must-see for both devoted fans and first-time viewers.

The outdoor stage experience was truly special! The set design was meticulously crafted, the actors and dancers were incredibly dedicated, and hearing the singing live was truly breathtaking! There were mature, powerful vocals as well as the soft, delicate style of young girls—the emotions were so nuanced. It was a feast for both the eyes and the ears! And that grand chandelier at the end was the perfect finishing touch! I’m a visitor from Taiwan, and I feel truly honored to have been able to see this special 40th-anniversary stage performance!

Turandot at the Sydney Opera House was an absolutely amazing experience. The performance was stunning and with incredible vocals that gave me goosebumps. It’s truly something you shouldn’t miss—100% worth it when visiting Sydney.

Great show. We have enjoyed this performance very much. Several directorial interpretations felt fresh and creative (Spoiler alert!!! Leaving Lensky lying dead on the floor throughout the 3rd Act contemplating the fact that characters' lives go on after the dreadful tragedy ). The fabulous music reminds of the beginnings for later masterpieces composed by Tschaikowsky. The main characters were very passionate and played the emotional side of their story so very deeply, that I heard spectators say that they thought Tatiana died of grief and emotional toll at the end of her performance.

I loved the artists' performance and the sound quality. It was my first expérience at Opera House anf I apreciated the opera bar.
