Yallamundi Rooms

Meaning ‘storyteller’ in the local Sydney language , Yallamundi celebrates the Sydney Opera House connection to First Nations culture. As a meeting place for community celebrations, intimate gatherings and performances, the Yallamundi Rooms carry on the legacy of Tubowgule, maintaining a deep connection to the past, present and future of the Opera House. This event space is crescent-shaped and spans the entire northern end of the eastern podium to take advantage of spectacular harbour views. Oscillating fabric and brass panels thread their way along the southern side of the new rooms, complimenting the beautifully restored original Terrazzo floor. We are proud to partner with Trippas White Group, led by esteemed chef Danielle Alvarez as our events partner. Danielle is one of Australia’s most celebrated female chefs who gained her passion for farm-to-table cooking from an impeccable pedigree of restaurants both in the US and Australia. As Culinary Director, Danielle has developed tailored menus for functions across our venues including weddings, intimate cocktail events, corporate networking and gala dinners. The menus draw on her dedication to seasonality and the joy and connection of sharing food, as well as championing local producers.
