Opera House of Sydney, Australia
Today, it is the world’s busiest performing arts center with over 8.2 million visitors each year, making it Australia’s number one tourist destination. Over 1.5 million people see more than 2000 shows 363 days a year at the eight flagship arts companies. It is also home to First Nations arts and culture, talks and ideas, theater and dance, and superstars in classical and contemporary music.
We attribute the breadth of those experiences to our visionary 1961 Act, which entails not only promoting artistic taste across all art forms, but also encouraging the development of new and improved entertainment methods and methods of presentation.
An internationally recognized symbol of Sydney and Australia, the Sydney Opera House is a masterpiece of modern architecture. It is characterized by its unique design of precast concrete shells overlapping in a sail-like pattern. Bennelong Point is a promontory at the entrance to Sydney Harbour where the building was constructed. Building the complex shapes of the shells of the Opera House required the development of new technologies.
Every year, millions of tourists visit the Opera House as both a performing arts venue and a tourist destination. The building is open to visitors for guided tours to learn about its history, design, and cultural significance. During the tours, you will be able to see the performance venues, backstage areas, and the iconic sails.

Sometimes the bleeding obvious has to be the shot.
On a cold clear dawn, tranquility on the harbour, the Sydney Opera House seems to float like a sailing ship as was part of Jørn Utzon’s imagining.
