göteborg opera (göteborgsoperan)

Acoustics are good, seat pitch, albeit a bit tight, was better than many other operas. And the musical "Kristina från Duvemåla" was excellent.

I took some pictures from the firework that GP newspaper fire of every year in the harbour. Also made some youtube movies but are not satisfied with them(they need some more work).

We were here on a business lunch with a large group of 25. Due to the group we had to pre-order our lunch which worked out well. Helpful staff with the booking and changing the time of the booking. For the price of their lunch, location and atmosphere it is definitely worth a few more business lunches here. Perhaps the staff could be a little bit more attentive but overall a great experience.

Before you go in there... take a walk around the operahuse and enjoy the harbour. Take a glass of wine and a classic Swedish shrimp sandwish in the bar. Enjoy the architecture before you enter the aula. I have to say ... the Opera house of Gothenburg it´s really really good to make the stage art to really art! Enjoy!

The Gothenburg Opera House conducts tours of the building. This is very worthwhile seeing the behind-the-scenes to what makes a great audience experience. The building is a honeycomb of rooms and functions that will fascinate you.

Right on the waterfront, it's a beautiful performance space built in 1994. Good sightlines, comfortable seating, and excellent options for dining or drinks before or after. Saw an absolutely brilliant staging of Le Nozze di Figaro; stellar cast.

Göteborg Opera impressive in form and grandeur, its shape seems a ship will split Gota canal waters ... Glass, grandeur, modern so in three words define this wonderful building.

Wonderful to see down by the water but it was hard to find out if there was a show on to see. We ere lucky the day we were there because there were a lot of tall ships near the area to make for some great pictures. Structurally a very interesting building with modern design. We also could not find out anything in regards to tours of the building?

Goteborg Opera is a very high quality opera house. They performe operas, musicals, operettas and dance pieces. I have seen many performances throughout the past years and every single one has been a very nice experience. Last time a saw Billy Budd opera and that was just as good as it gets in every way! The theatre self is a very nice building and the location is just beautiful, by the water. Before performances there's a free introduction lecture to the evening's performance. The bar and the opera shop are also very nice. The opera company has a good web site where one can find a lot of information of the productions, videos etc.

The newish Gothenburg Opera has an excellent location with the harbour just metres away. The likeness with the Oslo Opera is striking. As this is a new opera it is designed outside with a modernistic mind in thought, big glass windows, with a view that is magnificient in the summer months. As our visit was in October, it was dark and difficult to get the same feeling.There in a nice restaurant, but as the crowds were gathering up, the sound level increased and it got noisy in the restaurant. We just walked by the diners and they must have felt "overlooked.Once in the main opera hall it is clear that the building is new. The design is sparse and modern. We were on 2nd balcony and sound and view was ok, not perfect, but compared to paying 3-4 times more on the front row? Well, price-worthy, if you can get bargains like this it is an nice treat to "A Night At The Opera".

We went to Gothenburg mainly to visit the Opera House for a performance of Billy Budd. The performance and production were excellent and prompt us to look for further interesting operas at that venue in the future.The Opera House itself was striking in appearance, wonderfully located next to the water and very comfortable in the auditorium.

Great architectural design. Good for photos. Lovely scenery as well with boats docked in the area.They had an event going on when we entered. Huge field outside the opera and we saw people doing yoga (?). Pretty safe to visit at night. Beautiful light up and would look good in photos.

I have seen Boheme opera one time. The best experience is when I saw a musical here. It is a special experience to be at the place instead of seeing it on television

I am not a opera fan, but this is a cool building to see. If you plan to see a opra or a event here don't plan on drinking too much, there are far too few bathrooms for the amount of people it holds, so the lines were so long.....

The Swedish people enjoy going out in the evening and spending money for culture. When the culture turns out to be Swedish-based (ABBA) so much the better.If you are interested in torturing yourself in a rather uncomfortable seat, in a place with about as much romance is a jail, and pounding your brain with extremely loud music, and having to pay serious money for this pleasure that this is an ideal location for you.Yes, this senior visitor walked out. Really could not understand how the other people (and it was darn-near sold out) could put up with this garbage.
