The Colonnade was the first exterior change to the building since it opened. Nine openings were created along the Harbour Bridge side of Sydney Opera House into the Playhouse and The Studio foyers – six new large deep set windows and three glass doors. The foyers are now flooded with natural light and for the first time patrons can enjoy harbour and city views. The Colonnade was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in March 2006. Importantly, this opportunity was used by the Queen to formally recognise the building’s visionary architect, Jørn Utzon.
