Opera Queensland is powered by a diverse team of artists, musicians, creatives and professionals working together to bring extraordinary opera experiences to audiences across Queensland and beyond.

This year, our Annual Appeal looks to the future of opera in Queensland.

With your help, we can invest in young artists, open the door for more Queenslanders to experience opera for the first time, and create work of the highest artistic standard.

Ticket income alone cannot sustain the full breadth of this work. As a not-for-profit organisation, we rely on philanthropy to reach new audiences, develop our artists, and create opera that draws on the exceptional talent and stories of Queensland.

If you can, we invite you to join us by making a tax-deductible donation in June or on Giving Day on Tuesday 16 June.

Thanks to the generous support of Dr Philip Aitken and Dr Susan Urquhart, and Emeritus Professors, David Siddle and Christa Critchley, your gift to the 2026 Annual Appeal will be matched up $30,000. This means a gift of $100 becomes $200, or $500 becomes $1,000.

Make a tax-deductible donation by 30 June to support the future of opera.
