All About Women

A talks festival on gender, culture and equality

All About Women is the Sydney Opera House’s festival of ideas about gender, culture and equality, held annually in the week of International Women’s Day. Enormously successful and celebrated, it fills our venues with buzzy, inspiring and agenda-setting conversations.

All About Women Festival returns in March 2027.
