The Chorégies d'Orange are still the one of the biggest events in the Summer Festivals scenery.

The event that will stir the entire lyric planet is the arrival of the incredible superstar Cecilia Bartoli. For the first time ever, the incredible artist is singing at the Chorégies d'Orange. There is no doubt that music lovers will rush to the occasion to crack the stands under their applause. With Les Musicians du Prince, la Bartoli reserves an exceptional program of rare baroque airs being the only diva able to offer this repertoire to her audience with such success.

Another highly anticipated superstar at Orange, Roberto Alagna is making a comeback at the Théâtre antique in an absolute masterpiece, Samson and Dalila by Camille Saint-Saëns. The scene even seems to be designed to accommodate the grand opera that is both spectacular and intimate. Around the tenor, Jean-Louis Grinda, the director of the Chorégies (also staging), brought together a distribution that is truly exceptional. The magnificent Marie-Nicole Lemieux lends her features to the voluptuous Dalila while Ludovic Tézier, the greatest baritone today embodies the high priest of Dagon.

The other title on the Chorégies d´Orange 2020 poster is one that deeply touches the soul.

Praised by the public, the dance productions made a welcome reappearance at the Chorégies d'Orange two years ago.

This 2020 season, the Bejart Ballet Lausanne is back in force with a landmark show. Ballet for Life on Queen and Mozart music is a masterpiece by Maurice Béjart danced by the breathtaking and virtuoso company that is the living memory of the irreplaceable genius choreographer. Speaking of virtuoso, the violinist Nemanja Radulovic comes to amaze the spectators of the Chorégies.
