Gather from sunset for a free outdoor event that will transform the Opera House’s Monumental Steps into a festival that celebrates First Nations music, art and food.
On the second Friday night of each month from 12 May to 8 September*, First Nations performers transform the dramatic steps leading up to the iconic building into their stage at sunset, with the Badu Gili projections lighting up the sails before and after each performance.
The series will begin on 12 May with the opening night performance from blissed-out electro duo, Bow and Arrow.
*In June, Badu Gili LIVE will run on the last Friday of the month. Check dates and times for exact details.
