While relaxing for a week or two on the shores of Lake Garda, why not enjoy a visit to the famous Verona Opera Festival?
Your evening
Spend an evening under the stars, enjoying fabulous music at the famous Verona outdoor arena.
This is the legendary home of opera and one of the oldest and most atmospheric opera houses in Italy. Verona's Roman amphitheatre, built in the 1st century, is remarkably well preserved and is home to the summer opera festival. Seating around 22,000, the drama and atmosphere is extraordinary.
