The next piece of the Barangaroo puzzle is taking shape, with the bespoke fitout transforming the Cutaway at Barangaroo into a premier cultural destination reaching the halfway mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the metro open, and Central Barangaroo given the green light, the new and improved Cutaway is set to be the beating heart of the Barangaroo precinct, providing an iconic space capable of hosting a diverse range of events<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cutaway will continue to solidify Sydney’s reputation as a world-class destination, attracting visitors to Barangaroo and ensuring our city’s vibrancy for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This follows the Minns Labor Government renewed focus on bringing the fun back to Sydney, through relaxing restrictions on nighttime trading and outdoor dining, lifting the concert caps at our major venues and investing in attractions that will boost the state\u2019s visitor economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cutaway first opened in 2015 as a raw concrete shell and is now undergoing an upgrade to become a more usable space. The new design addresses key needs and improve functionality, including an enclosed space, enhanced acoustic capabilities, flexible event spaces and new amenities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Delivered by FDC Construction & Fitout and designed by FJC Studio, this ambitious project is reshaping the iconic space into an outstanding venue for events, exhibitions, festivals and installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aligned with Barangaroo\u2019s sustainability principles, the project has achieved several remarkable environmental milestones including diverting over 90% of construction waste from landfill, and reduction of carbon emissions by more than 50% as compared with standard benchmarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Construction is expected to be completed in late 2025, with event programming to commence in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cutaway\u2019s transformation will strengthen Barangaroo\u2019s reputation as a cultural hub and a must-visit destination for locals and tourists alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
