Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel: The Exhibition Arrives in Sydney

This breathtaking showcase brings Renaissance Rome to life, with 34 of Michelangelo’s famous ceiling frescoes from the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel recreated in true-to-size scale. Using a special printing technique that captures every brushstroke, texture and colour, the exhibition lets you step right up to masterpieces like The Creation of Adam and The Last Judgment — no scaffolding, no passport and none of the Vatican crowds.

Guests can wander through at their own pace, soaking up every detail with the help of informative signage and optional audio guides. Whether you’re discovering Michelangelo for the first time or returning to a lifelong passion, this immersive exhibition offers a fresh, intimate perspective on one of history’s greatest artistic achievements.

After sell-out seasons in Adelaide, Paris, and San Francisco, Sydney is next to host this world-renowned cultural event. Don’t miss the chance to explore a masterpiece up close in an experience that’s inspiring, educational, and completely unforgettable.
