La Fenice 2026–2027: an opera evening in the heart of Venice

A performance at Teatro La Fenice turns a simple evening in Venice into something memorable. The opera house is also within a pleasant walk of Locanda Fiorita.

At a glance: The 2026–2027 opera season includes Fedora from 13 to 22 November 2026, Madama Butterfly from 30 January to 9 February 2027, and Carmen from 23 April to 4 May 2027. Dates and availability should always be checked with the theatre.

Why it is worth discovering

La Fenice is famous not only for its music but also for its richly decorated interiors and long cultural history. Even if you are new to opera, choosing a familiar title can make your first evening approachable. Concerts and other performances offer alternatives beyond opera.

How to experience it

Have an early meal, then stroll through the streets around Campo Santo Stefano towards Campo San Fantin, where the theatre stands. Leave enough time to find your entrance and settle in before the curtain rises. Afterwards, a quiet walk back is a lovely way to end the night.

Our practical advice

Book directly via the theatre's official box office, check the venue for each performance, and confirm its dress guidance: special gala evenings can have specific requirements. Our team can help you orient yourself in the neighbourhood.

Choosing the right performance

The 2026–2027 programme offers more than one type of evening. Fedora opens the opera season in November; Madama Butterfly returns in winter; Carmen arrives in spring. If you have never attended an opera, reading the synopsis in advance and checking whether surtitles are available can make the performance more enjoyable.

The name La Fenice refers to the institution, but not every production is staged in the same building. Some performances are at Teatro Malibran, so always double-check the venue on your ticket. For the opening performance of Fedora on 13 November 2026, the theatre specifies evening dress.
