The program also details the opening night’s festivities which included the National Anthem performed by the Regent Grand Concert Orchestra, Fox Movietone News covering current events, including a policy speech by new Prime Minister James Scullin, and organist Stanley Wallace played a selection of music from operas on the Wurlitzer.

The feature presentation was a screening of the US musical film, Fox Movietone Follies of 1929. A detailed description of the gala opening was published in The Telegraphopen_in_new the following day.
