Opernhaus für alle

From June 26 until June 28 2026

For the first time, the Zurich Opera House presents the popular open-air format "Oper für alle" on three consecutive days. Over an entire weekend in June, audiences can enjoy live broadcasts of an opera and a ballet performance, as well as an open-air concert with the Orchestra of the Zurich Opera House on Sechseläutenplatz — all with free admission. In addition to a varied pre-program each evening, the newly founded Children's Opera Orchestra will also perform as part of the event.

The 2025/26 season program features two new productions: Cathy Marston’s ballet "Romeo and Juliet" and Richard Wagner’s opera "Tannhäuser" in a staging by director Thorleifur Örn Arnarsson. Gianandrea Noseda conducts the Orchestra of the Zurich Opera House in the large open-air concert, where tenor Benjamin Bernheim will appear as the soloist.
