One of the world’s most eagerly anticipated landmarks will finally burst into life tonight  as Dubai Opera opens. A sold out house, who snapped up tickets in a record-breaking three hours, will witness history unfolding as the auditorium is filled with music for the very first time, treated to a performance by the legendary Plácido Domingo.

If you’re one of the lucky ones to have got a hold of a ticket to see Domingo tonight , the doors of Dubai Opera will officially open at 6pm and the Plácido Domingo performance will begin at 8:00pm, promptly.

The Dubai Opera District

As the orchestra of world class musicians begin to play concert-goers will be delighted with what is already being described as an outstanding acoustic in the auditorium. The design of the theater means that all seats offer uninterrupted views of the stage and give an incredible sense of intimacy throughout. Dubai is set to make a lasting contribution to the performing arts and events’ sector with Dubai Opera, a 2,000-seat multi-format venue for opera, theater, concerts, art exhibitions, orchestra, film, sports events and seasonal programmes, within The Opera District.

The opportunity for visitors to the Opera to experience the power of live music in such an incredible venue is not an occasion to be underestimated. The connection between the exposure to music and the improvement on people’s happiness, health and wellbeing is well-documented. Dubai is the first city in the world to measure the happiness of its residents and visitors in an interactive way and so a visit to Dubai Opera will be a great option for meaningful leisure time.

If you want to be a part of Dubai Opera’s monumental opening year, book your tickets to experience world class performances in the most spectacular venue in the Middle East. The  programme is available to view online and tickets to The Pearl Fishers, The Barber of Seville, Opera Without Words, Coppélia, Giselle, Postcards from Vienna, Mozart Gala, Impossible, José Carreras, Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, Sara Baras, Anoushka Shankar, Béjart Ballet Lausanne, The Nutcracker on Ice and Slava’s Snowshow are still available and can be purchased online via their website.
