Be Dazzled by the Phantom of the Opera Sydney Harbour is the ultimate backdrop for The Phantom of the Opera, which has returned for a limited season until May 3rd. Set against the city’s iconic skyline, this outdoor production combines a live orchestra, jaw-dropping sets and costumes, and nightly fireworks for a truly cinematic musical experience. Pair the show with sunset drinks, a French-inspired meal on the Northern Terrace and a post-show nightcap in the Garden Bar, and this is one incredible evening, where theatre, harbour views and indulgence comes together.

Part design showroom, part creative meeting place, it riffs on the mood of a great hotel lobby, with sculptural sofas, curated artworks, rare books, and hand-restored parquetry underfoot. By day, designers can meet clients and explore the collection. By night, talks, performances, drinks and DJ sets draw the city’s creative crowd in.
