Opera Concert in Verona Palace with Prosecco

An intimate evening of classical arias, Art Deco splendor, and a welcome glass of prosecco in one of Verona's most storied halls.


This opera concert in Verona takes place inside the historic Palazzo dei Mutilati, where internationally acclaimed singers and a live pianist perform beloved arias in an intimate, architecturally remarkable setting. A glass of prosecco on arrival sets the tone for an evening that balances cultural depth with genuine artistic performance.

The Sala Antonio Girelli, with its original wooden furnishings and carefully preserved Art Deco interiors, provides a scale of venue that most concert halls cannot replicate. The proximity to the performers creates an immediacy rarely found in larger opera houses, allowing guests to experience the full dynamic range of each voice.

The program draws from a curated selection of canonical opera repertoire, featuring works by Verdi, Donizetti, Bizet, and Mascagni. A tenor, mezzo-soprano, and pianist collaborate to present these pieces with the interpretive care they deserve, making the evening accessible to newcomers and meaningful to seasoned opera listeners alike.

After the final notes fade, guests are welcomed into the atrium to meet the artists directly. This informal exchange offers an opportunity rarely available at major opera venues, grounding a refined evening in genuine human connection.
