99° ARENA DI VERONA OPERA FESTIVAL
On June 17, the 99th edition of the most popular Opera Festival in the world kicked off, in an Arena finally restored to its unique settings that attract an audience of over 13,000 spectators every evening, richer and richer than the major artists of the international panorama on the stage with Orchestra Coro Ballo e Tecnici, increasingly social with its almost 300 million contacts in 2021 alone, even more solid thanks to the embrace of patrons with the 67 Columns for the Verona Arena, a project that first edition won the Ministry of Culture Award as the best Art Bonus initiative among hundreds of national projects. What will animate the nights under the stars will be a Festival with a broader and more cosmopolitan breath than ever, an ideal preparation for the path that will lead to the finish line of edition number 100, in the summer of 2023.

- Carmen by Georges Bizet: 11, 14 and 27 August
