“You do not watch an evening at Teatro Aureo. You are received by it — from the first candle to the last bow.”— The Evening Standard, on last season
Inside the House
Opened in 1869, the house seats 1,709 under a single chandelier. The great horseshoe brings every seat close to the stage — there is no bad seat, only a favourite one.
The foyer is marble and candlelight; the bars serve champagne from one hour before curtain. Come early, stay for the bow.

Questions
Evening dress is the house tradition — a suit or a long dress will never look out of place. On opening nights, black tie is common. Comfort matters more than ceremony; come as you are, and come gladly.
Yes. Single tickets can be exchanged for another evening of the same production up to 48 hours before curtain, free of charge, at the box office or online.
Latecomers are seated at the first suitable interval, in the nearest available seat. The house doors close at curtain; the performance, once begun, is not interrupted.
Gold and Royal Box subscriptions include interval drinks every evening. Silver subscribers can add drinks at the bar, where a glass of champagne is $14.
