    I have been here for two different shows. Turandot and Carmen. The performance was outstanding from a graphic point of view. It is incredible what they can achieve, combining video , light-show, pyrotechnics and moving parts in the scenario. The quality of the voices was not at the level of the display but was great too. In brief, it is something to see at least once in your life!

    It is so impressive, had Goosebumps through the entire show, it surprised me in every way. I have been to many operas, this is a total different game. Go, just book it, you will not regret it. Also perfect for a surprise romantic weekend away.

    My average note is only relevant to the fact that open air event organizers do not cancel performances even in case of heavy rain. We planned our opera night 6 months in advance, booked a baby sitter, drove 45 minutes and prepared the best we could for the rainy weather (raincoats etc). In spite of all this, the rain was so strong that we were sitting on wet seats from the very start, and we could see water going in the mouth of the singers. After the first act we and many other people started to leave. I find that it's a complete disrespect towards the performers and visitors. Some can enjoy opera and good weather, while others less lucky should shut up and bear, while still paying great money. Other open air events at least propose to pause and continue when conditions allow or to come another day. When I called the ticket office a few days before to ask when happens in case of a rain, I was told that the performance is not cancelled in case of a light rain, only when there is a strong rain and we will be informed a few minutes before the start. However, when I called AFTER the opera, the person on the phone said that they don't cancel for any rain, even a strong one. Only when there are storms. This is because they want us, quote :"have the full immersive experience". So please, at least get your story straight when you answer weather relevant questions to avoid misunderstandings that whatever falls on us from the sky and doesn't kill us is not a reason to cancel. Most people go to opera as a social event to dress nicely, have some champagne and enjoy. With the current approach at Bregenz opera, one cannot be sure to get the nice experience, one was hoping for. Other than that, it was a really unique and nice place and good opera (Madam Butterfly)

    Once thing to do in Bregenz is to attend Festival. You will have an amazing experience as the stage is directly in the lake and it's unforgettable.

    This is an experience of a lifetime place. You should attend on a warm summer night to have the perfect setting.

    A beautiful place and a fantastic venue, I am here most years for the opera and it never fails to enchant me. It's a very special place and a beautiful lake to go with, I would visit every year and every year again. Food is superb, try the local beer Moran, wine is good value and very tasty, you should come to Bregenz and have a fantastic time, 2 to 3 days is perfect. Enjoy

    Sets the highest bar for theatrical performance. Always a pleasure.

    Cool to view even during the day when there’s no performance. It’s free to visit, and depending on the show they create new and captivating stages. This year (2022) is probably the least interesting I’ve seen.

    Nice teatre at the edge of the lake. Bring mini binoculars if you want to see well, unless if you are in the front seats

    Really An Event to Experience. I want to say "Thank You" to the Citizens of Bregenz that welcome Visitors with Open Arms to their Beautiful City. Everyone from Taxi drivers Servers Hotel Staff Casino etc were absolutely Wonderful. The Opera itself is Breathtaking A MUST DO EXPERIENCE!

    A superb Opera experience for (nearly) everyone. The Opera in Bregenz shines with a stunning stage, mesmerising costumes, amazing singers and a truly breathtaking orchestra. It's was truly a one of a kind experience. The only complaint I have is that seating is to cramped if you are taller than 180cm. I am over two meters talk so my knees hurt so badly that I asked to be reseated into on of the free seats with more leg room. The super nice lady who was responsible for the seating offered us two open seats in the first row of the upper balcony with dramatically increased legroom. It was an experience we won't forget.

    Lovely venue on a stunning lake, it should be amazing to be there for the opera on the water! I played a concert in the main hall, it has a great acoustic.

  • 5/5 Edward D. 5 years ago on Google
    Unique setting for a unique show. Saw their performance of Carmen. Understood neither the French it was performed in, nor the German it was subtitled in but still enjoyed the amazing performances. Massive production value, with aerial performers, video projections, pyrotechnics and a moving stage all interacting with the lake around it. Will be interested to see future shows

  • 5/5 Diana García Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice! I was impressed in every act and the performance very good. P
