Opera Up Late at the Sydney Opera House


  • Sydney Opera House (map)

Opera Up Late is back — bigger, better and naughtier than ever!

Join your host, international comedy and cabaret star Reuben Kaye, as he throws open the doors to Australia’s most famous cultural icon — the Sydney Opera House — for a late-night celebration for the ages.

Originally conceived for 2023’s Sydney WorldPride, Opera Up Late is a wild ride through the world of opera with a decidedly queer lens. With re-imagined opera hits, musical theatre classics and a few pop numbers along the way, this is a night of big laughs and big voices you’ll never forget.

Award-winning director Shaun Rennie corrals a cast of fabulous singers. Dress up (or down), climb the Opera House’s iconic steps, grab a drink and take your seats as we hit the highest of high notes.

Presented by Opera Australia
