Prague Opera & Ballet Holidays

Opera breaks and ballet holidays to Czech Republic

National Theatre  

The Prague National Theatre is a monument to Czech history and belongs to the most important Czech cultural institutions. At the heart of the Czech National Theatre are three artistic ensembles: The Opera, ballet and drama. It was these traditions that helped to preserve and develop the most important cultural features of the Czech nation. It was the collections of money among the broad masses of the Czech public that facilitated the theatres construction. This in itself is a true testament of the will of the Czech nation for its national identity and independence. The National Theatre was opened for the first time on June 11, 1881 to honour the visit of crown prince Rudolf. It was built to perfection, designed by Josef Zitek and only had significant modern modifications after being open for over a hundred years. Today, this extremely prestigious and beautiful building is still the premier theatre for Prague’s opera, ballet and drama. If you would like to experience Prague National Theatre as part of your Czech Republic weekend break stay, we’d be delighted to book tickets for you.

Prague State Opera  

The Prague State Opera, formerly known as Smetana Theatre, opened in 1888. It was built in response to the Czech National Theatre by the city’s German minority, so that the Prague-German performers didn’t have to share a theatre with other production companies. The State Opera was designed by Fellner and Helmer, who were famous for there opera house designs. The interior of the State opera is luxurious, with beautiful sculpted decorations and elaborate paintings. The State Opera is Prague’s most attractive theatre and whether to see a performance or not, it should be visited, to marvel in its beauty. Please enquire if you would like to see a performance here, whilst on your short breaks stay in Prague.

Prague Opera Gala Series  

The Prague Opera Gala Series is for all music lovers and opera connoisseurs and has been an extremely loved tradition since 1992. The gala series runs for a 11 months and is held at the Kaiserstein Palace but was originally held in one of Prague’s oldest buildings, on the old town square, called ‘the House at the Stone Bell’. The Kaiserstein Palace is one the most stunning Baroque buildings in Prague and is located in the Mala Strana district or more commonly known by tourists as ‘little Quarter’. The concert hall of the Kaiserstein Palace was named the Emmy Destinn Hall in honour of the world-renown opera singer and greatest of all Czech divas. Many outstanding world opera singers have participated in the Stone Bell series, some of the Prague opera Gala principal stars have been: Italian tenor Gaetano Bardini, American soprano Pauletta de Vaughn and Ukrainian tenor Vladimir Grishko. This beautiful building is well worth visiting to see a concert or recital of great operatic arias. We have a dedicated department that specialises in Opera city breaks, Ballet city breaks and many other luxury & cultural holiday breaks in Prague. Let us arrange the most memorable evening in Prague, where you can be part of the Prague Opera Gala experience. Contact our opera & ballet specialist today.
