Experience the magic of ‘traveling opera’ during a 2-hour operatic performance at the grand Palazzo Barbarigo-Minotto in Venice. Performed by the acclaimed Musica a Palazzo ensemble, this night of opera, song and music features world-class singers and instrumentalists performing as they move, with the audience, through the palazzo’s beautiful salons. With the singers performing feet away and the lavish rooms providing authentic backdrops, you’ll feel as if you’re part of the opera, not in the audience. Choose from three classic operas to suit your tastes and schedule.

This was a magical experience that makes you feel like you are part of the story. The setting and talent of the performers really makes this memorable. I took two teenage boys who do not speak nor understand any Italian as an introduction to opera that would not require a tux and everyone loved it! Having the glass of bubbles and canal view during the intermission was an added bonus.

The palazzo was stunning and the candlelight performance was wonderful. My mother and I love live theater and I was a little worried it would be more “dinner theater” than “theater” but I am so glad we listened to our hotel staff and went. The performers were as good as or better than ones we have seen at the “theater”. Each act is performed in a different room in the palazzo with a ten minute intermission where you are served champagne. If you want an enjoyable evening of Italian culture and history … I highly recommend this activity.

We visited and experienced The Barber of Seville. It was a fun performance and we enjoyed the interaction with the audience as well as tge excellent singing and music. The room changes were done well and added something different to the evening. Highly recommended

The venue was amazing, though a bit hard to find. The performers were skilled and really pulled us into the performance. In fact, one of the characters handed my daughter and I a glass of Prosecco as part of the scene. I would definitely recommend this a unique experience and I am glad that we attended.

What a breathtaking performance! It was uniquely staged. Each act was performed in 3 separeate rooms. The performance was a marvel it itself. Very high quality with virtuoso singers!

This experience was sublime—mysterious, magical, and beautifully musical. Tucked away in an elegant building complete with spectacular frescos on the ceiling, the show truly makes you feel as though you are a member of the nobility in bygone times. We saw an abbreviated version of La Traviata, and the three main characters had spectacular voices. The fact that they were singing just feet away from us gave the performance an impact I have never before experienced watching operas. I very highly recommend you make this activity part of your Venice visit.

Brilliant performance all round. We came to this opera 8 years ago and we absolutely loved it. It was the highlight of our stay in Venice. So we’ve come back again this year for our honeymoon and we HAD to go again. And once again it did not disappoint. The musicians were amazing and the performers were engaging throughout. I loved the moments of audience interaction and absolutely love the promenade staging. To this day I haven’t experienced anything else like it and should we return to Venice I know where I’ll be on a Wednesday night.
