La Traviata: Arena di Verona Opera Festival 2025 — Early Bird Offer!
Verona, Arena di Verona
About the Event
The popular opera 'La Traviata' makes a comeback at the Verona Arena in a stylish 2011 production by Hugo De Ana, showcasing beautiful décor inspired by the belle époque era with large frames, mirrors, and tapestries.
La Traviata (ital.: The Fallen Woman) is a three‐act opera by Verdi based on Alexandre Duma’s novel 'The Lady with the Camellias' (1852). An opera about 'a woman of pleasure' was something novel in the1850’s due to both subject and setting. The events described are set in Verdi’s era, though directors often choose to update the action to another period. 'La Traviata' is one of the most frequently staged operas in the world.
Act 1
A lively party in the salon of Violetta, Paris' most popular courtesan. A young man, Alfredo Germont, joins the party, and is persuaded to sing a drinking song. Alfredo has adored Violetta from afar, and uses this opportunity to express his feelings for her. Violetta believes that true loveis not for her, because of her occupation, but she is confused by Alfredo’s pure mind and honest love.
Act 2
Violetta and Alfredo have left fashionable society, and live peacefully outside Paris. When Alfredo is away, Violetta unexpectedly receives a visit from Alfredo’s father. Germont senior puts pressure on Violetta to break up with Alfredo, because her reputation jeopardises the marriage plans of his daughter. Violetta is filled with sorrow and guilt, and leaves their home without telling Alfredo the truth. Alfredo, unaware of his father's visit, rages at Violetta's faithlessness.
Violetta returns to Paris society, accompanied by a former patron, the Baron. Alfredo pursues her, and hurls accusations and insults at Violetta in front of the assembled guests.
Act 3
A few months later, Violetta is seriously ill, with death fast approaching. Alfredo rushes to her bedside, finally having been told the truth by his father. Alfredo begs Violetta for her forgiveness. They plan a joyful future together, but Violetta breathes her last as she remembers the time she spent with Alfredo.

Arena di Verona
The Arena di Verona is the third largest Roman amphitheatre still standing. Built around 30 AD, the Arena is also among the best-preserved amphitheatres of the period. Its gigantic dimensions (140 meters long and 100 meters wide), and seating for over 30,000 spectators, ensure it dominates the northern part of Piazza Bra. Excellent acoustics and a fabulous location make it an ideal venue for large-scale opera performances. The monument was re-established as a theatre during the Renaissance, and in 1913 the tradition of opera at the Arena di Verona began with a production of Giuseppe Verdi's 'Aida'.

Super Abend in der Arena. Das aufwendige Bühnenbild war ein Augenschmaus. Die Sänger haben Ihre Stimme voll zur Geltung gebracht. Leider haben wir auf den Stein sitzen mehr schlecht als gut gesessen. Beim nächsten Mal nehmen wir Karten für Stühle.

Fantastic experience. Great musical performance. Only downside was that my water bottle was taken at the entrance (500 ml soft squeeze bottle…) and someone apparently liked & took it.
