Sydney Opera House: Velvet Inferno Show

Velvet Inferno Show

24 July - 13 September 2026
Cabaret | Musical Theatre
Sydney Opera House

Welcome to Velvet. A nightclub where disco reigns supreme and the allure of the dancefloor is inescapable.

When a bright-eyed but lost young woman walks in, club owner Country Mike (Brendan Maclean) sees the future. With the help of The Diva (Marcia Hines), a groovy coming-of-age journey ignites.

Velvet Inferno is a 75-minute, non-stop disco spectacular with boiling hot vocals and jaw-dropping circus acts. Directed by Craig Ilott (Gatsby at the Green Light, L'Hotel, Velvet Rewired), expect timeless dancefloor anthems, powerhouse performances and gravity-defying acts.

Be electrified by a red-hot soundtrack of disco classics: If You Could Read My Mind, Raining Men, No More Tears.

Inspired by Studio 54, the legendary New York nightclub famed for its wild parties and radical inclusivity. Blind to colour, creed, class, gender, size, shape or sexuality. A place where icons like Andy Warhol, Mick Jagger and Grace Jones once strutted their stuff.

The disco is coming. Drinks will flow. The dancefloor will be red-hot. Are you ready to join the party?

Velvet Inferno is a performance lasting approximately 70 minutes.
