Please note: The Sydney Opera House requires all items larger than the dimensions of a standard A4 piece of paper to be cloaked. As the cloakrooms have limited space, the venue requests that teachers and students do not bring large bags/backpacks with them to performances.

If cloaking facilities are required please allow ample time prior to, and after, the performance for cloaking and collection of students' bags. This will ensure that the program commences and finishes on schedule.

While cloakrooms are staffed at all times, the Sydney Opera House is not responsible for lost or stolen goods.

General (non-booking) enquiries: (02) 9367 8309.
