Celebrating 22 Years Of Antonio Pappano

Join us to celebrate Antonio Pappano’s 22 years as Music Director of The Royal Opera with a once-in-a-lifetime evening of opera highlights. After conducting more than 700 performances with us, Antonio Pappano has programmed a special, celebratory evening with a cast of world-famous guest artists, the Royal Opera Chorus and the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House.

All proceeds from this evening will benefit The Royal Opera House Covent Garden Foundation, enabling us to continue presenting extraordinary performances, remarkable craftmanship and inspiring learning and participation projects.

Premium tickets including seats for the performance, are available in the Grand Tier, Orchestra Stalls and Stalls Circle. These include a donation to the Royal Opera House Covent Garden Foundation, invitations to pre-performance and interval receptions, and a post-performance dinner with the cast and members of the Royal Opera House in the Paul Hamlyn Hall. Premium dinner tickets, and performance-only tickets in Orchestra Stalls are not available online. Please email [email protected] to purchase these tickets.
