Classical opera and dance concert halls Cairo

The Cairo Opera House offers a fairly rich annual programme, alternating Saturday night concerts by the Cairo Symphonic Orchestra, ballets by the Cairo Dancers, contemporary dance performances, and operas by foreign theatres or inviting internationally renowned soloists. The summer programme provides an opportunity for young talent to express itself. The Cairo Opera House is part of the National Cultural Centre in Cairo. It is located in the southern part of the island of Gezira, close to downtown Cairo.
