Event details

From screenings to commissions to a stage recognised around the world, the Sydney Opera House’s relationship with the moving image has unfolded over five dynamic decades.

This exhibition traces how repurposed spaces beneath its sails became a home for film from the moment it opened in 1973.

From premieres and special events to its starring role in Hollywood blockbusters to local cult classics, the Opera House has long captivated filmmakers and audiences alike. Discover how an icon of live performance became a landmark of the moving image — and why its cinematic story continues to evolve.
