Ten years ago, something very special happened. A new chapter in The Australian Ballet’s story began – one written not just by our artists, but by our community.
For the first time in our history, a major production – David McAllister’s The Sleeping Beauty – was brought to life through the generosity of our supporters.
You’ve seen the magic unfold. Now, we invite you to help us write our next chapter.
Together, we awaken the magic — again and again.
Every shimmering detail of The Sleeping Beauty – from the sensational hand-sewn costumes to the lavish, golden sets – was a triumph of imagination, artistry and community. Thanks to our Ballet family and the expertise of celebrated creatives, this vision became reality.
If you feel inspired to join our giving community, know this: every gift – large or small – helps to shape the future of our national ballet company.

Ten years ago, more than 2,000 generous individuals helped awaken David McAllister’s vision of The Sleeping Beauty. Today, this breathtaking production continues to enchant audiences of all ages – and stands as a shining example of what we can create together. We remain deeply grateful to everyone who made it possible.
