The Sydney Opera House has conducted its first review of the number, frequency and duration of projections on its sails. It comes after a record number were lit in 2022. About three-quarters of the 19 projections were government requests. The shells have come to be regularly lit for reasons of national days of significance, international festivals and in Australia’s soft diplomatic interests. The review's findings will now be considered by the Arts Minister. The Opera House currently allows for projections for artistic, cultural and community initiatives, with no commercial logos or corporate identities allowed.
