World Class Opera in Medieval Lakeside Castle<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

First-class opera in a medieval castle<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Savonlinna Opera Festival is Finland\u2019s premiere cultural event. World renowned for its high-quality opera performances and concerts, every summer it brings music lovers from across the globe to the charming lakeside city of Savonlinna. The month-long festival is held in Olavinlinna, a towering medieval castle by Finland\u2019s largest lake. This creates a uniquely dramatic ambiance for its 70 000 visitors. Once inside, festival-goers are dazzled by classics and rarely seen works as well as world premieres and visiting productions from esteemed opera houses like La Scala and the Bolshoi Theatre.<\/p>\n

Dramatic setting meets excellent acoustics<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Built in 1475, Olavinlinna Castle is the world\u2019s northernmost medieval castle still standing. Set on an island amidst the breathtaking beauty of Finnish Lakeland, during the festival, it\u2019s illuminated by the white nights of the Finnish summer. Combine the castle\u2019s extraordinary atmosphere with its excellent acoustics and covered auditorium in the courtyard, and it\u2019s easy to see why the festival promises such an unparalleled opera experience.<\/p>\n
