Sydney Opera House’s annual programs and series

Artist to Artist Talks

Artist to Artist is conceived as a series of insights – short, sharp conversations that offer fresh perspectives on local and global cultures.

Our annual festivals

All About Women

All About Women is the Sydney Opera House’s centerpiece talks festival about gender, justice, and equality, held annually in the week of International Women’s Day. For over a decade, the celebrated event has filled our venues with inspiring moments and buzzy, agenda-setting conversations.

Vivid LIVE

Vivid LIVE is the annual centrepiece of the Sydney Opera House’s year-round contemporary music program – a whole-of-House takeover and the only time of year that the world-famous venue is completely reimagined by live contemporary music and art, celebrating cutting-edge and iconic artists that defy expectations and break new ground.
