So, it is with open arms that we present to you this iconic event: Parkway Drive as you have never seen or heard it, with a full symphonic orchestra, performed at the most iconic building in the land – the Sydney Opera House. One night, one show, one band. Please join us for a black-tie celebration of the place we call home."
