An unforgettable evening under the stars
For three weeks only beginning in March 2012 one of the greatest operas ever written is performed on a purpose-built shimmering stage on the waters of Sydney Harbour. Extravagant and devastatingly romantic, La Traviata is perfect for first-time opera-goers.
This monumental production features a full orchestra, magnificent sets, beautiful costumes, dazzling effects, and a 9-metre chandelier suspended above the purpose-built shimmering stage. The Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge and city skyline provide the spectacular backdrop.
Experience the magic from our specially-built venue at Mrs Macquarie's Point in The Domain. Find out more >
