Festival Opening
Tuesday 13 May 18:00
Come and celebrate the opening of the Festival of Outback Opera 2025 with a mix of performances, including opportunities for you to join in and share the joy of singing. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a fun selection of songs while taking in the extraordinary atmosphere of The Royal Theatre in the centre of Winton. This historic open-air cinema has been open since 1918 - just one of two open-air theatres still operating in Australia.
After the interval, get up on your feet and sing your heart out. Guided by host Jason Barry-Smith, you are all invited to sing well known opera and popular songs, setting the stage for the Festival ahead.
Opera Queensland's Festival of Outback Opera is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland, the Outback Queensland Tourism Association, The University of Queensland and Haymans Electrical.
