Classical opera and dance concert halls Sweden

The Royal Opera is Sweden's national opera and ballet theatre, founded by Gustav III in 1773. Located on the waterfront, just opposite the Royal Castle, the Royal Opera House was built between 1892 and 1899 in Renaissance style, after the original building was destroyed. Once past the marble entrance hall, one can see the large murals by the national artist Carl Larsson. Although opera and ballet are unfortunately not performed in the summer, the season is in full swing in autumn, winter and spring

Designed by architect Bo Karlberg, the Gävle Philharmonic Concert Hall is an elegant building surrounded by wild greenery on the edge of a peaceful pond. The interior acoustics are designed for flexible adaptation to symphonic and popular music, which has allowed the venue to host rock bands as well as classical orchestras and Mongolian throat singers. Be sure to visit their website to check out their upcoming concerts, as you will be potentially surprised and delighted!

Music lovers, the Konserthus is for you! The Swedish National Symphony Orchestra performs here. Usually at least one or two concerts per week, except when on tour. The rest of the time, you can enjoy other shows or jazz, classical or contemporary concerts. The acoustics are sublime and, for a few years, the Finnish conductor Santtu-Matias Rouvali has been officiating there... The program changes often, so the best thing to do is to go there or consult the site for information.
