Teatro Carlo Felice
Genoa's main opera house, with a neoclassical portico opening onto a modern auditorium that stages opera, symphony and ballet.
The Teatro Carlo Felice opened in 1828, was destroyed in World War II, and was rebuilt in 1991 with its original portico. The interior is a modern theatre seating about 2,000 and is famous for an auditorium designed to evoke an open-air piazza. The season runs mainly from October to June, with operas, symphony concerts and ballet. Tickets start at around EUR 20 to 30. The portico sits beside Piazza De Ferrari, so it is easy to take a photo on your way. Book performance tickets in advance on the official website.
