Arena Opera Festival
Fly to Verona with Air Dolomiti
The partnership that brings together Air Dolomiti and Fondazione Arena di Verona is now consolidated over time and is the result of a shared and profound love for Italian music and culture.
Fondazione Arena has frequently accompanied Air Dolomiti in its most important moments such as the 25th anniversary celebration in 2016 and then the participation, in 2021, of the soprano Gilda Fiume in the evening organized at the Giusti Garden on the occasion of the Company’s 30th anniversary.
In 2021, despite the health crisis, Arena offered a show that symbolised the rebirth of the entire city. The direction proposed the use of innovative video projections, with over 400 m2 of LED walls, integrating new technologies with the tradition of historical installations: an aesthetic revolution that has protected artists and technicians, whilst still allowing for the grandeur of the show that has always been the public search in the Arena.
In 2023, on the occasion of the 100th edition, 44 evenings will be dedicated to the eternal operas of Bizet, Puccini and Verdi.
Below is the calendar of the scheduled works:
