GöteborgsOperan
A waterfront opera house shaped like a moored ship, staging opera, ballet and musicals, with an outdoor terrace overlooking the harbour.
Opened in 1994 and designed by architect Jan Izikowitz, the building's lines draw on ships and piers, blending harmoniously with the harbour. Its main hall seats about 1,300 and hosts opera, contemporary dance and musicals. Ticket prices vary by production, and discount and student tickets are often available. Even without a performance, you can enjoy views of the Göta älv and the opposite bank from the outdoor steps and terrace. Located at Lilla Bommen, next to the 'Lipstick' building.
