The infamous 1966 fallout of Australian Government’s project in-charge, Davis Hughes, and designer/architect Jorn Utzon, who envisioned the landmark Sydney Opera House, is widely known as ‘Malice in Blunderland’. Seven years later, Queen Elizabeth finally inaugurated the structure in October 1973.

Today, it is one of the busiest performing arts venues in the world with over 1,500 performances annually in its multiple theatres. Over eight million people visit this landmark annually. An unusual fusion of innovation and creativity in architecture and structural engineering, this Sydney icon was accorded a UNESCO World Heritage Site listing in 2007.

  1. It is a great building and a must see in Sydney, Sydney Opera House is iconic for all the right reasons. Extra special is the Vivid Festival in June where they light up the Opera House with laser light imagery. Amazing!!
