FILMING AT SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE
For media related filming activities please contact Sydney Opera House's PR Team here.
All requests to film on Sydney Opera House’s site must gain prior approval from Sydney Opera House.
Sydney Opera House is one of the busiest performing arts centres in the world and also a world heritage listed site. With so much on-site activity we must comply with strict site safety to protect all our staff and visitors. We must also comply with planning, heritage regulations and our conservation management plan to protect the building.
Sydney Opera House receives partial funding for building maintenance from the State Government of NSW, but is otherwise responsible for generating close to 82% of its own commercial revenues. These revenues include revenue from sponsorship and licensing. The image of Sydney Opera House is an internationally well recognised and valuable brand. It is our responsibility therefore to preserve the integrity of the site and control the use of the Sydney Opera House brand and image on behalf of the Sydney Opera House Trust.
