  • Initiative sees return of Sri Lankan music to iconic venue after two decades

Home Lands Group continues to strengthen its commitment to positioning Sri Lankan excellence on the global stage, with the company partnering as Principal Sponsor of ‘Rhythms of Lanka’ at the iconic Sydney Opera House in Australia on 23 August with an audience of around 2,500 in attendance. 

For Home Lands, supporting ‘Rhythms of Lanka’ comes naturally as the company continues to lend its support to platforms that celebrate Sri Lankan talent and bring it to an international audience.

Home Lands also hosted an exclusive investment forum engaging with both existing and prospective investors, showcasing Sri Lankan real estate investment opportunities while promoting foreign investment in Sri Lanka, at the Sydney Opera House, overlooking the breathtaking Sydney Harbour. The investment forum preceded the musical presentation, with senior officials of Home Lands, alongside Brand Ambassador and acclaimed chef Peter Kuruvita in attendance, marking another significant milestone in the company’s continued expansion and growing presence beyond Sri Lankan shores.

The event presented a strategic opportunity for Home Lands to support an internationally significant platform bringing together some of Sri Lanka’s most accomplished musical talent, including Rookantha Gunathilaka, Kasun Kalhara, Kanchana Anuradhi and Chitral Somapala, alongside internationally acclaimed pianist Eshan Denipitiya.

The Sydney Opera House provided an especially significant platform. Recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site and regarded as one of the world’s most distinguished performing arts venues, its global stature offered an exceptional setting through which Sri Lankan talent could be presented at a venue of exceptional global significance.

The concert marked a significant return of large-scale Sri Lankan musical representation to the Sydney Opera House after almost two decades, following earlier Sri Lankan performances at the venue. This renewed presence reflects the continued international reach of Sri Lankan artists and the strength of the global Sri Lankan community.

Home Lands’ involvement forms part of a broader strategy of the company promoting Sri Lankan achievement, arts and culture across high-impact international platforms. Having built a strong presence in real estate and extended its support into sports and other fields, Home Lands is increasingly supporting platforms that showcase Sri Lankan capability across different spheres of excellence.

Music represents a natural extension of that commitment. By supporting ‘Rhythms of Lanka’ Home Lands reinforced its position as a brand that does not simply participate in significant moments but identifies opportunities where its presence can contribute to elevating Sri Lanka’s profile internationally. It is an approach rooted in purposeful brand association, aligning Home Lands with platforms that carry cultural relevance, international visibility and the ability to influence how Sri Lanka is perceived beyond its borders.

Thus, across all fields Home Lands continues to build associations that reflect the ambition, talent and potential of Sri Lanka. At the Sydney Opera House, that commitment took its place on one of the world’s most recognisable stages.
