The relationship between the performing arts and the screen is as old as cinema itself. At the Sydney Opera House, it stretches back to our opening in 1973.

Today, that legacy continues with 'Shortwave'. In just five years since its launch, the program has commissioned more than thirty short films, often in partnership with community arts organisations and independent producers.

For the 2026 season, we’re premiering films from some of Australia’s most exciting contemporary artists. This is your ticket to step into their most experimental work yet: https://soh.online/shortwave-2026_read-now

Thank you to Sydney Opera House New Work Now donors for enabling Shortwave.

Velvet Inferno has arrived, and it's bringing disco anthems, roller skates, bathtub splashes and enough sequins to light up The Studio.

With the incomparable Marcia Hines and the phenomenal Brendan Maclean and KYE leading the party, this is one night out you'll be talking about long after the glitter settles.

Today we're revisiting this beautiful performance from Glen Hansard in the hidden acoustic ceiling above our Concert Hall stage.

Glen shared countless moments with audiences at the House over the years. With multiple sold-out performances in the Concert Hall, he created unforgettable experiences that will continue to resonate for years to come.

Vale, Glen Hansard.

We're always camera ready! 📸

The spherical shape of our sails allows for optimal drainage, while the tiles themselves were developed over three years by Jørn Utzon, using a special blend of clay and crushed stone to ensure they wouldn't need any additional cleaning.

Thank you to our visitors who took these incredible photos,

It is a truth universally acknowledged that 'Pride & Prejudice (sort of)' had an incredible opening last week! 👏

Silliness and sensibility come to life on stage with austen-tacious jokes, songs and heartfelt moments shared between sisters - it's time to fall in love with one of the world's most renowned classics all over again.
