Pre-Performance Dinner

For the perfect start to your night at the Sydney Opera House, relax over a 3-course meal with uninterrupted harbour views, before heading into the performance.

The restaurant and bar in the Northern Foyer of the Joan Sutherland Theatre opens 90 minutes before evening performances. It is not open before matinees or Great Opera Hits. The space is wheelchair accessible.

Space is limited, so we recommend purchasing dinner when you book your tickets. No booking is necessary for the bar.
