Introducing The Sydney Siege

  • Summary

  • Ten years ago, on December 15, 2014, a gunman stormed a Sydney café, taking 18 hostages in a harrowing ordeal that shook the nation.

    Over the next 17 hours, the siege ended with the terrorist being shot dead, the tragic loss of two innocent lives, and a scar left on Australia's heart.

    Louisa Hope and her mother entered the Lindt Café that morning, unknowingly walking into a nightmare that would leave them wheeled out on stretchers, forever changed.

    In this re-released series, explore the chilling events of that day and hear how Louisa has rebuilt her life a decade on.

    This is Louisa’s story—a compelling firsthand account of courage, survival, and resilience from a day that changed Australia forever: The Sydney Siege.
