Family Days 2023

We loved sharing our creative community with you and hope you enjoyed seeing how opera can make you see, hear, taste, touch and move in different ways. We’re glad so many of you enjoyed the days, here’s just a few comments we’ve had:

‘This was the highlight trip of our summer holiday. It was astonishing value and everything was beautifully thought out and of very high quality.’

‘This is one of the best days out we have had as a family. We will definitely be back.’

‘An enchanting and joyous day! We felt privileged to have the opportunity to discover opera in a glorious setting with the most welcoming artists and passionate staff.’
