The Phantom of the Opera - 2022 Tour

Next year Opera Australia are putting on TWO outdoor operas in Sydney.

The Phantom of the Opera is returning to Sydney Harbour Friday 25 March - Saturday 24 April 2022 AND Carmen is going to be performed on Cockatoo Island 25 November–18 December 2022.

Earlier this year, Sydney’s musical theatre fans were abuzz with the news that Andrew Lloyd Webber’s megahit masterpiece The Phantom of the Opera would be coming to the Sydney Opera House. Now that NSW is preparing to emerge from lockdown, Opera Australia has announced that a new production of the show is being moved to an even more famous venue: Sydney Harbour. Handa Opera on the Harbour – The Phantom of the Opera will be one of two outdoor spectaculars staged by the harbour waters by Australia’s national opera company in 2022, the second being a remount of OA’s popular production of Bizet’s Carmen, which will take place in November, for the first time on Cockatoo Island.

Australian Road Journeys, through our group wholesaler Expanding Horizons is able to secure tickets pre-release group tickets for The Phantom of the Opera NOW - prior to the information getting sent out to all group operators in Australia over the next couple of days. First in, best tickets!!!!

I know it is difficult for us to fathom travelling after such a horrific 20 months but the pent up demand is huge and how FANTASTIC will it be to get back to what we love?

If you would like to put a tour together to the Handa Opera next year for your Club  – let us know. It might be a special trip just for the Opera or you might like to incorporate it with a longer tour.

At this stage bookings are not open for the Phantom of the Opera for the general public (waitlist only) and group operators will be receiving notification over the next few days …. We are just lucky to be ‘first cab off the rank’!

Just for some guidance for the Phantom – Premium Tickets will be around $ 250 + and A Reserve around $220 plus booking fee. I will not know the rest of the conditions until the formal paper work comes through.

If you are interested in either performance (or both) let me know your preferred dates and we will set something up for you.

Kind regards,
Cesare Cataldo
