Description

La Scala Opera House is one of the most famous theaters in the world: it has hosted internationally recognized artists from all over the world for over two centuries and can sit over 2000 spectators.

Stepping into La Scala is entering a place where Opera really thrived and became one of the most popular form of entertainment in the XIXth century.

Mythical composers such as Bellini, Rossini and Verdi created some of their most important works there and La Scala is often referred to as a “second home” by the likes of Maria Callas and Luciano Pavarotti.

La Scala museum is the perfect place for your personable tour guide to delight you with interesting anecdotes and take you through a vast collection of objects, instruments, and other musical curiosities, as well as a gallery of busts and paintings portraying the most important Opera composers and singers, including Giuseppe Verdi and Arturo Toscanini.

If you could not get a ticket to a performance, this is your best alternative, join us in this journey through an iconic symbol of Italy.
