Media contacts

The Communications Team can provide information about Sydney Opera House performances, events and corporate matters, and tourism and visitor experience.

We can arrange interviews with our staff and performers, supply copyright-cleared images of performances and organise site visits for journalists, photographers and camera crews. We can also handle media review ticket requests.
