Join us in celebrating Beethoven 200&

Dear group clients and business partners,

it has been a while since our last meeting at the DZT Roadshow “German Travel Week 2025”.

The new 2026/27 season has been online since March 2026, and tickets for performances are already available for booking. Discover our diverse opera, ballet, and concert program at www.semperoper.de/en. Don’t wait too long, as some dates are already filling up quickly.

In light of the keen interest you have shown in our Beethoven Days, we would like to cordially invite you to join us in celebrating the Beethoven 200th anniversary. A visit to a performance at the Semperoper is definitely a cultural highlight and an unforgettable experience for your tour group!

From 3 April to 20 May 2027, you will have the unique opportunity to experience Beethoven’s symphonies over four consecutive days with the Sächsische Staatskapelle, conducted by Principal Conductor Daniele Gatti. Beethoven’s opera Fidelio is also a standout in Beethoven’s oeuvre: encountering it in the context of Ferdinando Paër’s Leonora, which premiered in Dresden, promises to broaden your musical horizons into the past. Discounted prices are available when booking a package or cycle. We would be happy to advise you.

Guided tour of the Semperoper

If attending a performance doesn’t quite fit into your travel plans, we still recommend taking a look inside the historic opera house, which is well worth seeing. Please feel free to contact the team at Semperoper Erleben for inquiries about a guided tour of the building.
