Absolutely stunning, a bucket list ambition achieved after being initially thwarted by Covid. Worth the time, effort (and expense!) and would highly recommend. Great organisation, wonderful atmosphere and a stunning performance, the costumes were magnificant and even the scene changes were fascinating to watch because of the scale of the production. Verona is a treat of itself.

We had 2 nights at the opera which we booked independently. The first was a special event for my 83 yr mum and I to see Placido Domingo so we booked the expensive silver seats with the smart dress code. The floor had a rise from front to back and our seats were at the front of the section row 31, seat 2+4 (which were side by side). There was a corridor in front of us so we had good space and expected to be able to see well. The view was mostly good but a tall gentleman sat in front and kept moving around which did spoil the view and was a bit frustrating bearing in mind the cost of tickets about 190 Euro each. However the atmosphere and scenes esp Aida was fantastic. A lovely feature is the Italian script with translation to English on screens high on the walls which means you can easily follow the plot. Listening to the live music under the startling sky in that venu was just magical. So the next day we called at the ticket office which is just a few steps from Louis Vuitton shop, opposite the arena and booked 2 tickets at £32 for my daughter and I and £24 for my mum. These were for the steps at the arena sides. It was entry door no 15 so as far forward as you could be on the side but the view over the orchestra and of the stage was amazing. My mum had a wee bought arena cushion to sit on and it was simply perfect. ( I would recommend it for height in the floor seats and for comfort on the stone side seating) Total unobstructed view which I would recommend for anyone who can climb the steps.( No lift). We saw Turandot which we knew nothing about except that it is based in China and has Nessun dorma" in the final act. It is Giacomo Puccini's opera. That aria alone I would have paid to see. Simply perfect. Although we once went to Carmen ( amazing spectacle and more familiar arias) with our teens, the opera at 4 HR was a bit long for them. Be aware most are 3-4 HR. The same daughter now in her 20s just loved it. When you leave at 12 midnight or later, the piazza is full of life with the restaurants open and people eating pasta. We had yummy hot chocolate just to soak in the scene. Ps I was with mum in 80s and daughter in 20s which isn't an option to choose on TripAdvisor reviews ( not teens)

The seating was substandard and not safe for the elderly and those with poor mobility there were steep inclines but no guard rails SeTs too close together so knees knock into chair or person in-front of you Not great for 3 hours+ The opera and scenery and costumes were majestic and beautiful and as expected but the Verona Arena facilities and poor seating made a mockery of the experience given the huge cost Later found out most locals don’t attend because of the discomfort and cost They are right Terrible shame Don’t go
