Sydney Opera to sing in New Year
Opera Australia will be front and centre this New Year’s Eve when it presents its glamorous Opera Gala concert in the Joan Sutherland Theatre, giving guests an opportunity to be right in the heart of all the action on both the stage and the Harbour.
Rounding out a fantastic year of performances, Opera Australia has presented Cinderella, The Phantom of the Opera, The Barber of Seville, La Traviata, Attila, among others. After several years of challenge in the arts industry, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this has been one hell of a year for the company.
New Year’s Eve is the biggest night of the year in the Harbour city. The midnight fireworks display is world famous and the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge is the centre-piece, making the Sydney Opera House one of the best vantage points in town.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the crowds, guests can opt for the ultimate, once in a lifetime New Year’s Eve experience and book the Platinum package that includes the Pre-Gala Dinner, Platinum reserve seating for the Concert, a program, champagne at interval and entry to the Midnight Party in the Joan Sutherland Northern Foyer.
All guests will be able to watch 9:00pm fireworks during the interval, with the most breath-taking views overlooking Sydney Harbour from the Northern Foyer.
Hosted by the irrepressible Jonathan Biggins, the Opera Gala Concert combines some of the greatest arias ever written and performed by a selection of Australia’s finest singers and musicians. All wrapped for a night of epic celebrations.
If you don’t have tickets to the Midnight Party, there are a limited number of outdoor viewing areas you’ll be able to access following the performance. Please note that these spaces are limited and cannot be guaranteed.
Tickets are sale via the Opera Australia website.
