Strategies and Action Plans
Sydney Opera House Strategy
Consistent with our practice to date, this strategy will inform the development of portfolio-based strategies and annual key performance indicators. This will ensure we are all aligned behind clear and consistent goals.

Access Action Plan
Sydney Opera House belongs to everyone. As an organisation, our goal is to provide barrier-free access, making the site, building and the experiences they offer accessible to all people.

Artistic Strategy
Our Artistic Strategy sets out the Opera House’s ambitions up to the end of 2024, including our 50th anniversary in 2023, to inspire artists and audiences, and to shape contemporary culture, locally, nationally and internationally.

Conservation Management Plan
The Opera House’s latest Conservation Management Plan (CMP) –‘Respecting the Vision: Sydney Opera House – A Conservation Management Plan’ – provides detailed guidance on conservation and management at an important moment in the Opera House's Decade of Renewal.

Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Strategy
The Opera House plays an important role in shaping our nation, life and culture. As we approach our 50th anniversary, we are setting out the positive change we want to drive over the next two years, and beyond. Because we have a committed workforce. Because it will make the Opera House a better place for everyone. Because what we do next will inspire others.

Environmental Action Plan
Inspired by nature, architect Jørn Utzon conceived a building ahead of its time, inherently sustainable by design. Almost five decades on, the Opera House has set a new standard in sustainable heritage buildings and we remain committed to inspiring greater environmental awareness across the community.

Heritage Action Plan
As temporary custodians of this State, National and World Heritage site, we are committed to ensuring the Sydney Opera House’s heritage significance – the building and its functions as a performing arts centre and gathering place for the community – is conserved and celebrated for current and future generations.

Reconciliation Action Plan
For thousands of years, Tubowgule, the land on which the Opera House stands, has been a place of gathering and belonging. The Gadigal would meet on the tidal island, eat and share stories. The Opera House carries on this legacy by embracing and celebrating the culture of Australia’s First Peoples.

Visitor Experience & Engagement Strategy
Each year, millions of people gather on site and engage with us online to be entertained, to learn, to escape and to connect. Whether it’s seeing a brilliant show, enjoying a meal or just being at this special place, we want everyone to feel welcomed and inspired by the unique magic of the Opera House.
