Fireworks and party at the square for Carlo Felice Theatre's opening night in Genoa

A great event open to the city of Genoa: the opening night at Carlo Felice Theatre on December 15th staging Giuseppe Verdi's La Traviata with fireworks display, a big reception at Palazzo della Borsa, and delicious refreshments at De Ferrari square with focaccia with cheese and Ligurian wine.

This year’s Carlo Felice Theater’s opening of the season is definitely more enthralling: the beauty of Genoa’s historical downtown, the music of Carlo Felice Theatre and the excellence of Ligurian cuisine are joining all in one evening.

The evening of December 15th, in fact, will include the traditional fireworks starting at 7.40pm, then - unlike previous years when the opening night was followed by refreshments served at the theater - Piazza De Ferrari will come alive with food and wine booths offering delicious focaccia and wine.

Massimo Zanetti will be the opening night’s conductor, Giorgio Gallio the director, scenes and costumes are by Guido Fiorato and music by the Orchestra and Choir of the Carlo Felice. The season will then continue with great work and classics such as "Falstaff", "Cosi fan tutte", "The Elixir of Love", "Don Carlo", "Maria Stuarda", “Turandot".
