To the Opera House
on Any Budget

For over 100 years, the AMAG Volksvorstellungen have been part of Zurich's cultural life. And the idea behind them is just as wonderful today as it was back then: to give as many people as possible the opportunity to enjoy an evening at the opera house. Thanks to the generous support of AMAG, selected performances are once again available at particularly attractive prices this season. Tickets cost between CHF 15 and CHF 75 and go on sale online and by telephone at 12:00, one month before each performance. Up to four tickets can be booked per person.

Twice a month, thanks to the generous support of Swiss Re, the Opernhaustag offers a 50% discount on all seats for a selected evening performance of opera, ballet or a concert. Tickets are available online, by telephone and at the box office from 12:00 on the day of the performance. If an Opernhaustag falls on a Sunday, ticket sales begin at 12:00 on Saturday instead. Up to four tickets can be booked per person.

Do you enjoy going to the opera or ballet and want to share your passion with others? Would you like to go behind the scenes, attend rehearsals and meet the people who work on stage or behind the scenes? Or benefit from heavily discounted tickets? If you are between 16 and 26 years old and have answered yes to at least one of these questions, become a member of Club Jung! Membership is free and without obligation (one-off joining fee of CHF 20). In our regular newsletters, we invite you to attend rehearsals, Club Jung meet-ups and workshops. Club members can purchase tickets for selected performances during advance booking at a flat rate of CHF 18. Last-minute tickets are also available for CHF 18, online* from 13:00 on the day of the performance or at the box office from 90 minutes before the performance begins.

A spontaneous visit to the opera house for CHF 22? With a KulturLegi card, you can. From 90 minutes before the performance begins, KulturLegi cardholders can purchase any remaining tickets at the last-minute price. And now, these tickets are no longer available only at the box office: CHF 22 tickets can also be purchased directly through the Opera House app.

With a little luck, you can regularly win the chance to buy category 1 to 3 tickets for CHF 35 in our app lottery. Entry is free, and those selected can purchase up to two tickets at the special price, even if the regular ticket price is as high as CHF 335. Currently included in the draw: "Ein Sommernachtstraum". Simply register in the app, select your preferred performance and enter the draw.

We’ll be happy to advise you personally.
