Verona Opera Programme & Tickets
Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliet, is full of architecturally striking piazzas, churches and museums, evidence of its Roman and medieval past. It is famous for the opera season in July and August in the Roman Arena.
The Verona opera is a real spectable. Sit in the warm night air and enjoy the electric atmosphere and spectacular opera. Performances commence at 9pm. Most places are on the steps of the arena. Excursions will run from all Lake Garda resorts for every performance. If you are staying in Verona we can book your tickets for you, without transport to the Arena.
Enjoying these operas on a warm summer evening is a truly magical experience.
The Verona Opera programme for 2013 runs from 14 June to 8 September.

This year the Opera celebrates its 100th birthday and also the bicentenary of the birth of the famous composer, Giuseppe Verdi, composer of the famous Aida. To mark the occasion, Placido Domingo has been appointed as Honorary Artistic Director. In any year, the opera is a real spectacle but 2013 promises to be extra special year with some Gala Evenings.
If you are staying in Verona we can book your tickets for you. Excursions will also run from all our Lake Garda resorts and from Lake Iseo for all performances and transport to/from the Arena is included. Performances start at 9pm but you will be taken to Verona in plenty of time to enjoy a pre-opera dinner in a restaurant of your choice.
