Why locals recommend it
Gigs at this heritage-listed building right in the middle of the city are a real treat. The building is stunning, with Gothic, Italian, and Art Deco flourishes. They also offer comfortable seating, great sound quality, and iconic artists like Patti Smith onstage—they have it all. For the best view, try to get a seat in the stalls downstairs. The State Theatre doesn’t just host live music, there’s a diverse annual program spanning everything from comedy and ballet to story evenings and musicals. It’s also one of the main venues for the Sydney International Film Festival.
