We get to the heart of the art and showcase what always matters most: the people.

It’s magical, the combination of an energetic team of volunteers, experienced opera producing professionals, international artists and -  those who have never set foot on the operatic stage! 

Year on year, we welcome outstanding professionals to our company and community, and every season, when we create opera together, we are changed forever.


Our visiting professional opera singers are both mentor and witness to the transformational development of young singers in the PPV programme. Inspired by the start of another journey, they’re reminded of their own ‘why’. 

Our committed team of volunteers is proof of the value of giving your time and your talent for a community project to positively impact your own wellbeing. 

Our incredible donors and supporters applaud and champion as they follow the collective and individual journeys to curtain up.  They see the impact of their investment. 

We love sharing this artform and we want to bring the whole community on the journey with us! We look forward to seeing you at the opera soon!


“Having experienced opera from Paris to Sydney, Festival Opera is clearly a producer of international quality to rival them all.” — Nickolas Krawchenko, Audience Member
