The Sydney Opera House has announced its line-up for Antidote 2021 – its annual festival of ideas, action and change.

The festival will be live-streamed from the Opera House stages on Sunday 5 September and presented on Stream, the Opera House’s online streaming platform.

Celebrating its fifth year, Antidote is a vital response to our turbulent times, galvanising the community by providing a platform for inspiring conversations, consensus-building and creative solutions, programmed by outgoing Head of Talks & Ideas, Edwina Throsby.

The unmissable line-up will cover themes including solutions for the climate crisis, alternatives to capitalism, #StopAsianHate, decolonisation, the Uluru Statement from the Heart, the myth of the ‘fair go’, anti-Arab racism since 9/11, Deaf culture, morality in Australian politics, and the quest for meaning in a post-truth age.

Note, should public health orders permit in-person events on 5 September, ticketholders will be offered the opportunity to upgrade their digital ticket to an in-venue ticket.
