Opera Australia: Opera Up Late

Opera's greatest late-night party is back for more. More music. More glitz. More laughs.

Opera Up Late returns to Melbourne in 2026 - bigger, better and naughtier than ever!

Originally conceived for 2023's Sydney WorldPride, Opera Up Late is a wild ride through the world of opera with a decidedly queer lens.

With re-imagined opera hits, musical theatre classics and a few pop numbers along the way, this is the perfect chance for newbies to pop their operatic cherries and regulars to reacquaint themselves with a great love.

Award-winning director Shaun Rennie corrals a cast of fabulous singers for a night of big laughs and even bigger voices.
