Malmö Opera is one of Scandinavia’s premier cultural landmarks and a gorgeous showcase of Swedish functionalist architecture. Completed in 1944 and originally established as the Malmö City Theatre, the venue has been protected as a government-listed historic building since 1994.nThe Stunning Foyer: It features an open design with sweeping marble staircases, natural light pouring through massive glass windows, and prominent artworks by renowned Swedish artists Carl Milles and Isaac Grünewald.nThe Auditorium: Built with one of the largest stages in Europe, the auditorium features an amphitheater-style layout designed to guarantee an excellent line of sight from every seat.nBroad Repertoire: The house hosts a vibrant mix of classic operas performed in their original languages with Swedish and English surtitles, contemporary musicals, and innovative dance productions.nMalmö Opera Orchestra: Founded in 1991, the resident 60-piece orchestra performs everything from large-scale symphonic works to children's opera and chamber music.
I wish I had time to enjoy an event here. I will enjoy. Careful while buying tickets for certain events if you are a tourist, most of the shows are in Swedish
We've seen Tosca. It was fantastic. The opera building is great. Everything easy to find and nice to be there. The seats in the theatre are comfortable and the view was great. I had also ordered refreshments for the break. There was a table ready for us with all the things ordered. It really made my evening.
Beautiful... Not the two in Copenhagen, but, still, you can feel the special vibes
The good: great location and good opera Tosca. Easy to get by train and car, easy to find a parking lot. The opera itself is built in the middle of the 20th century and is beautiful in its Scandinavian functionalist architecture.nnThe bad: needs as many buildings from this period to be renovated and upgraded - for example all the seats has been equipped with some kind of metal bar - I assume it’s for safety measures but it makes the seatings look like something out of an 60 year old tram.nnThe food was good but the service reminds me of something that you would expect in a cafeteria - as an example, came early, we were the only people in the bar at the entrance, ordering champagne and was asked to pick it up ourselves. I’m not against doing work myself but would expect a waiter to service customers as opposed to doing nothing.
