When was the last time Oprah Winfrey came to Australia?

This isn’t the first time that the former talk show host has come Down Under.

Her most notable appearance was when she taped the last four episodes of her show at the Sydney Opera House in 2010.

Dubbed the “Oprah House” at the time, she brought 300 American fans with her to mark the milestone, and thousands of Aussies also went.

Five years later, she followed it up with a speaking tour across the country.

“I have been saying since I left Australia that I wanted to get back,” she admitted to NewsCorp at the time.

“I didn’t have the chance to fully embrace it because I was with 320 other people, there were 20 camera crews, there was an itinerary a mile long.

“So the opportunity to do what I most love, that is to sit in gathering spaces and talk to women about things that I know they value and I value as important wasn’t really high on my agenda.”
