Puccini Festival In Budapest, Until 10 June

• 7 May 2019 10:24 AM

At the end of its Puccini’s Italy season, the Hungarian State Opera organises its traditional end-of-the year festival and aims to do what no institute has ever done before: to showcase all Puccini’s stage and vocal works.

Apart from his 11 operas, audiences get the chance to hear a different Puccini: songs, arias, special events, and spectacular productions will feature the best Hungarian artists along with international guest stars.

As the reconstruction of the Opera House in Budapest is still undergoing, the performances can be seen at the Erkel Theatre and the newly opened Eiffel Art Studios.

Venues: 

Erkel Theater
1087 Budapest, II. János Pál pápa tér 30.
