Madrid will be the European Capital of the Opera in May

Teatro Real welcomes the International Conference of Opera Europe

From the 6th to the 8th of May, Madrid will celebrate the International Conference of Opera Europe, which will gather, at the Teatro Real, representatives of 150 opera theatres from more than 40 countries all over the world and will turn Madrid into the European Capital of the Opera. 

The Conference, whose main discussion point will be the use of new technologies as a tool for the spreading of the opera, will coincide with the celebration of the “European Days of Opera”, for the first time since the Conference in Paris, 2007, and the launch of the digital opera project.

Among the activities planned on the occasion of both celebrations is the screening of opera and children’s shows on different outdoor screens.
