Vienna opera was so expensive, we didn't bother seeing a show, but Prague State Opera was very reasonable, and we loved the decor inside, and show was pretty darn good as well. Check out their website before you go as shows often sell out.

The Opera House is very impressive inside . The classical music concert was not very good . I think the concert is a some kind of Tourist trap . You should visit there only to see the architecture or when a good and known symphonic orchestra performs there.

What a treat to experience a fantastic opera in the setting of Old World tradition. Yes, you begin to realize NYC opera is all to do about nothing. The music, the setting, the props, the beauty of architecture, and the ability to book a seat without the usual New York haggling was a great experience!

We went to see Carmen at the State Opera House and it was wonderful!! If you like opera, this is something you must do while in Prague - go see an opera. We got the best seats, but all prices are very affordable. I'm a huge fan of opera and Carmen contains one of the most beautiful music. It is... More

We went to see Carmen and was not dissapointed, the atmosphere and setting was amazing. The price when compared to the UK was half of a London production, as were the interval drinks. A must do if you visit Prague

Watched a fantastic performance of the magic flute which we thoroughly enjoyed, but the real star was the opera house itself - smaller than we expected but stunning. Well worth a visit.

The performance of Nabucco was excellent. and started on time! Costumes and scenery very nice, also. It was enjoyable just to be in the opera house!

We had a lovely evening at the State Opera for a representation of La Boheme. We had no difficulty obtaining tickets and thoroughly enjoyed the magic of the location.

We bought these rather expensive tickets to watch the opera show when we were there. The opera is closed under remolding process so the only way to see inside is to buy the ticket. Little we knew that we would spend 45 minutes sitting on the staircase. We weren't allowed to see anything other than the staircase. The whole opera... More
