The Box Office is now open for Waterperry Opera Festival's Mini Festival, taking place in the beautiful surroundings of Waterperry Gardens on August 15th-16th 2020. We're delighted to be giving away a group ticket for up to 4 people, worth £120!
While the full programme for the opera’s annual summer festival has been postponed to 2021, the festival team are well-placed to offer a socially distanced alternative, making use of Waterperry’s extensive gardens. Visitors will be able to enjoy a semi-staged, costumed production of Mozart’s Cosi fan tutte from specially-designed, socially distanced pods, and a standing performance of Jonathan Dove’s song-cycle Ariel. Tickets are available here.
