About Bassano Opera Festival

Between late autumn and December, Bassano del Grappa becomes the city of opera with the Bassano Opera Festival's Opera Season. Major repertoire titles—from Verdi to Mozart—are staged at PalaBassano with high-level orchestras, choirs, and productions, also a result of collaboration between Veneto's opera cities. An event that brings grand opera to the foot of Monte Grappa.

Opera in Bassano del Grappa

The Bassano Opera Festival is the opera season of Bassano del Grappa (province of Vicenza), promoted by the Municipality and Operaestate Festival Veneto. Between late autumn and December, it stages major opera repertoire titles at the PalaBassano, featuring prominent orchestras, choirs, and casts.

A Veneto Opera Network

The season also stems from collaboration between Veneto cities that produce opera—particularly Bassano, Padova, and Rovigo through the L.I.V.E. project—and involves important orchestras such as the Orchestra di Padova e del Veneto and, for some productions, the Orchestra and Choir of the Teatro Verdi in Trieste.

Between Tradition and New Productions

The program alternates cornerstones of Italian opera and international repertoire, with productions that focus on direction, sets, costumes, and lighting. The Opera Season confirms Bassano as a cultural hub in the Vicenza foothills, capable of bringing great musical theatre to a wide audience of enthusiasts.

Bassano Opera Festival — edition 2026

A new Opera Season of the Bassano Opera Festival is expected in late autumn 2026 at PalaBassano, following the city's operatic tradition and the Veneto opera network. Titles, dates, and casts will be announced by the Municipality of Bassano del Grappa and Operaestate in the preceding months.

For 2026, a new edition of the Opera Season of the Bassano Opera Festival is expected, as usual in late autumn at the PalaBassano.
