Events Bohemia Opera Breaks to Prague 2025

Prague is a city whose musical life can be pursued back to the 11th century. Not only famous Czech composers Antonin Dvorak, Bedrich Smetana, and Leos Janacek composed there but also Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart lived in Prague and composed his symphony no 38 (the "Prague") in the city, as well as his opera, Don Giovanni. A number of great composers visited Prague after Mozart and Beethoven, as well as outstanding performing artists, including Carl Maria Weber, Fryderyk Chopin, Nicollo Paganini, Franz List in particular, Hector Berlioz and Richard Wagner.

EVENTS BOHEMIA have prepared your week-end break to Prague in great style. Marvelous venues, outstanding performances, excellent hotel and services. The only thing behind your expectation is price.

PERFORMANCES AND DATES

MAY 31, DER FLIEGENDE HOLLANDER by Wagner
Will the Dutchman find the woman whose faithful love will break his eternal damnation?

JUNE 28, RUSALKA by Dvorak
A true gem of Czech opera, one that has won over audiences worldwide. The composer’s ardent melodies, both tender and dramatically extreme, his masterful work with musical motifs and full-blooded orchestration, as well as Jaroslav Kvapil’s fairy-tale libretto, evoking Erben’s immensely forcible ballads, make Rusalka a work of fascinating beauty addressing audiences of all ages. Rusalka is customary deemed a “mere” fairy-tale. To be sure, there is no doubt that the fantastic story and the characters of the nymphs, water goblin or the witch are of a fairy-tale nature, yet in its fairy-tale scenes

AUGUST 30, LA TRAVIATA by Giuseppe Verdi
This staging of La Traviatta is one of the Prague State Opera´s most popular productions. In this work, based on the novel La Dame aux camelias by A. Dumas Jr., Verdi created the first major opera that deals with contemporary social issues.

SEPTEMBER 6, DON GIOVANNI by Mozart
The Estates Theatre host performances of the legendary Don Giovanni production directed by Vaclav Kaslik, which received its premiere in 1969. The sets, designed by Josef Svoboda, inventively encompass the architectural elements of the auditorium itself, integrating the proscenium boxes as the main component of the scenery, and thus capitalising on the fact that the Estates Theatre was the venue of the world premiere of the Opera of Opera. The opening night, on 29 October 1787, was conducted by the composer himself. The opera will be performed in the original Italian, with Czech and English subtitles.
