Back in January we posted on a big new Beatles In Australia exhibition that was destined for Sydney and Melbourne. Well, now it has officially opened in Sydney (at the Powerhouse Museum) and there’s a fair bit of excitement around celebrating 50 years since the Beatles first touched down in this country. Here’s the cover of the free Powerhouse Museum guide brochure:

1964 was the band’s first world tour. They were in Australia for just 13 days but in that time played 20 concerts – to a nation which had taken them to into its heart.

The Powerhouse has produced a comprehensive website in support of the exhibition and for any Beatles fan it is well worth a look.
