GREEN LIGHT FOR WALSH BAY ARTS PRECINCT

Walsh Bay

Walsh Bay’s transformation to become a world-class arts precinct is one step closer after approvals were received for the two state significant planning applications and the local residents and owners’ approval.

The Walsh Bay Arts Precinct will see the rejuvenation and activation of Pier 2/3, Shore 4/5 and Wharf 4/5, in a unique heritage setting. The redevelopment will create a thriving arts precinct for some of our much-loved performing arts companies on Sydney’s famous waterfront.

Minister for the Arts Don Harwin said, “It’s important we continue to support Sydney Theatre Company, Sydney Dance Company, Bangarra Dance Theatre, Australian Theatre for Young People, Gondwana Choir, Sydney Philharmonia Choir and The Song Company who will return to refurbished spaces where they can continue to produce, rehearse and showcase their work.”

Minister for Planning Anthony Roberts said, “This exciting new project will attract thousands of new visitors every month and will become a great tourist drawcard for our city”.
