The open day on Saturday gave members of the public the chance to explore and learn about the extensive history the building beholds after more than a century.
Visitors explored backstage at the Opera House and took the opportunity to tread the boards where so many famous faces have previously walked, have a peek in the backstage dressing rooms, and listen to the historic Wurlitzer theatre organ.
The majestic Empress Ballroom and Spanish Suites were also on view.
Take a look at our special picture gallery from the event:
