Wheelchair positions;
The Concert Hall wheelchair positions are in a flat area and those seated there may experience sightline restrictions of varying levels. These could be due to the placement of staging props, platforms for instrumental musicians (especially for orchestral performances) and for events like contemporary music, audiences may stand and dance. We request patrons seated in front of wheelchair spaces remain seated throughout, however our ability to manage this may be limited and an unrestricted view of the stage and all performance elements cannot be guaranteed. If you experience discomfort during performances, please approach a Front of House representative to discuss your concerns.
Suitable for all ages
Children aged 15 years and under must be accompanied at all times. Children aged 0-23 months at the time of a performance may be seated on a parent’s lap free of charge. All children occupying a seat or aged 2 year/s of age or older must hold a valid ticket.

Josh Homme
Godfather of Punk
Former Stooges frontman and godfather of Punk, Iggy Pop, makes his long-awaited Opera House debut this April to perform a career-spanning set across his illustrious career. From seminal solo records Lust For Life, and The Idiot to his recent collaborative album with Josh Homme, Post Pop Depression, seeing Iggy rock out on the Concert Hall stage is a 2019 "must see" for all generations of music fans.
Widely acknowledged as one of the most dynamic stage performers of all time, Iggy Pop pre-figured both ‘70s punk and ‘90s grunge and has built a legendary career filled with both critical acclaim and fanatic cult success.
As explosive as the first three Stooges efforts were, it was some of Iggy's solo albums including his pair of peerless Bowie-produced Berlin records, Lust For Life and The Idiot that cemented his status as a true musical innovator. From the anthemic sounds of 'The Passenger' to the commercial success of 'Candy' (with Kate Pierson of the B-52s) and from the cult-film classic Trainspotting 'Lust for Life', the punk with the poet's heart proved he was more than just a self-destructive caricature.
Having performed only a handful of shows around the world in the past year, don't miss one of Rock's great frontman take to the Concert Hall stage for the first time, with a full band. It will be one of the most powerful, energetic, high-octane performances you're likely to see this year.
