Performances & Tickets

Operabase is the world's most comprehensive database of opera and performing arts performances. You can search for upcoming and past productions anywhere in the world, filter by location, date, and work, and find ticket links directly from the performance listing.

Finding upcoming performances

  1. Go to www.operabase.com and click Performances.
  2. Use the search filters to narrow your results: musical work, composer, artist, organisation, country, city and date range. You do not need to fill in every field; start with what you know and add more filters to narrow the results.
  3. Click Search, then click any production in the results to view the full cast, crew, performance dates and venue details.

Searching across multiple countries

Select each country individually using the country filter. When you add more than one country, use the AND/OR operator: OR (the default) shows results from any of the selected countries, and AND shows only results that meet all other criteria across all selected countries. For example, to find upcoming performances of Don Giovanni in Italy or Spain, search for the work, set the date range to upcoming, and select Italy and Spain using OR.

Tickets

How do I buy tickets for a performance?

Where tickets are available, you will see a Tickets button on the production listing or production page. Click it to be redirected to the box office of the theatre, festival or venue selling the tickets. Operabase does not sell tickets directly: we display ticket links as provided by the producing organisation and redirect you to their box office to complete your purchase. All ticket availability, pricing, seating and booking terms are managed by the venue, so confirm details, including performance times, directly with the box office before purchasing. Operabase is not responsible for issues arising from ticket transactions, including availability changes, cancellations or refund policies.

Why is there no Tickets button on a performance?

This can be because the producing organisation has not added a ticket link, the performance is sold out and the link has been removed, or tickets are available at the door only. If you want to attend a performance with no ticket link, visit the producing organisation's own website; you can find it, and their contact details, on their Operabase organisation page.

I clicked Tickets but can't find availability. What should I do?

Operabase links you to the box office as provided by the producing organisation. If you cannot find availability, or the link appears broken, contact the venue or box office directly using the contact details on the production page or their own website. Operabase cannot check availability or assist with individual ticket purchases.

Performance information looks wrong. Who do I contact?

Performance information is submitted by the producing organisation or by artists themselves. If something looks incorrect, such as wrong cast details or outdated dates, email contact@operabase.com and our team will review and update it. For urgent queries about a specific performance, for example a cancellation or cast change, contact the theatre or organisation directly, as they will have the most current information.
