Festival dell'Arena di Verona
Discover the 2025 season of Arena di Verona Festival, and book your tickets online !
Since the renowned soprano Cecilia Gasdia took over as artistic director, the Verona Arena Festival has become the must-attend event for all opera stars.
The famous Festival dell'arena di Verona 2025 promises fabulous evenings of unprecedented luxury.
The Festival des Arènes de Verona, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2023, promises ever more breathtaking productions with five operas on the bill, all with a modern twist. The new production of Verdi's Nabucco, the Verona Arena's flagship opera, has been entrusted to Stefano Poda. Having directed a spectacular Aida with striking special effects, this new production of Nabucco is eagerly awaited. In fact, Stefano Poda's hit Aida is being revived this season 2025.
The three other opera titles on the bill are in the purest Arena tradition, with La Traviata in Hugo De Ana's timeless staging, and Rigoletto in a historical reconstruction. Carmen has its rightful place in this wonderful setting in this special year. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
Indeed, this year marks the 150th anniversary of Carmen and the death of its illustrious composer, Georges Bizet. For the occasion, Franco Zeffirelli's monumental production, a true Festival “must-see”, is revived (we'll be celebrating the 30th anniversary of this production!).
Operas are at the heart of the arena's programming, which also includes other prestigious events such as the Jonas Kaufmann gala. So make sure you book your tickets as soon as possible!
Today's greatest tenor, a veronese star, returns for an evening dedicated to Italian opera. Another international star makes the event particularly extravagant with the magnificent prima ballerina Roberto Bolle, who also returns with his friends for an evening of outstanding choreography! Here again, opera tickets are going fast.
Another evening of ballet is offered in the ancient Roman theater, Zorba the Greek, a tribute to composer Mikis Theodorakis, with a spectacular production, just one more... But as we said, the most important thing about the Verona Arena Festival is the absolutely fabulous cast. On the soprano side, we note the return of major stars such as Anna Netrebko, on the bill for Nabucco and Aida, and the very first participation of Marina Rebeka (Aida) and Angel Blue (La Traviata). Anna Pirozzi is a legendary Abigail who will be applauded in Nabucco, as will Netrebko, who will be performing the role for the first time in Italy. Rosa Feola and Nadine Sierra are Traviata and Rigoletto's Gilda de luxe. The mezzos also promise fiery evenings at the 2025 Verona Arena Festival.
You'll need to book your tickets fast to see the new Carmen, Aigul Akhmetshina, as well as Clémentine Margaine in Aida. Aleksandra Kurzak and Roberto Alagna are reunited in Carmen and Aida. On the men's side, it's also a festival. Amartuvshin Enkhbat, Luca Salsi and Youngjun Park star in Nabucco. The immense tenor Gregory Kunde shares the role of Radamès with Brian Jagde, a sure bet. Pene Pati will be a formidable Duke of Mantua in Rigoletto, not forgetting the incredible Ludovic Tézier.
These renowned artists will undoubtedly light up the superb events on the bill at the Arena di Verona 2025. Reservations are now open, so don't miss out!
