Opera Australia has introduced a range of ticketing options that make the 2018 season of La Bohème more accessible for everyone.

A Harbour Flexi-Pass allows people to book a ticket to La Bohème without having to choose a date, with the ticket able to be redeemed at any time during the Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour season, even on the day of a performance and right up until the show starts.

This new ticket gives opera lovers the flexibility to choose the date they come to experience one of the world’s greatest outdoor opera spectaculars.

Student rush tickets are now available for La Bohème and can be purchased with the appropriate ID. Tickets, which cost $45, can be purchased from 9am on the day of selected performances. If tickets are available, students are offered the best available seats - that might mean the best in the house, or could mean restricted view.

The Susan and Isaac Wakil Foundation Access Program was established in 2015 to provide discounted tickets to people who have yet to experience an opera, via a ballot system. The heavily-subsidised tickets are priced at $20. The access program aims to attract newcomers to the opera, enabling them to attend at a significantly reduced ticket price.

Opera Australia also offers a flexible exchange policy that allows you to exchange your tickets up to two working days before the performance you hold tickets to. Opera Australia subscription tickets can be exchanged for free. Other tickets may be exchanged for a fee.

Opera Australia continues to welcome the NSW Government’s ongoing support and commitment to Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour via its tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW.

It runs from23rd March to 22nd April 2018 at the Fleet Steps at Mrs Macquaries Point.
