The Sydney Opera House is located in Sydney, Australia. Visitors travel from all over the world to enjoy performances that range from opera and ballet to theatre and live music productions. There are even special programmes for children that include dancing, music and theatre. For many people, just visiting the Sydney Opera House is entertaining.
Concert Hall or Opera Theatre Jorn Utzon, a young architect from Denmark, designed the building. He entered a contest in 1956 to design a concert hall in Sydney and was announced the winner in 1957. The unique design caused many difficulties and the Opera House was not completed by 1973. Fortunately, the building became a huge success and is considered now with many to be one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.
The Sydney Opera House was earned a reputation as a world-class performing arts centre and is a proud symbol of Sydney.
