Where to meet art, culture and creativity
Seven weeks, 14 opera productions, three world premieres and a wealth of concerts: this is the Munich Opera Festival 2026. The programme covers a wide range: from Baroque – with George Frideric Handel’s *Alcina* as the festival premiere at the Prinzregententheater – through 19th-century opera classics to contemporary musical theatre. With Brett Dean’s Of One Blood – a commission from the Bavarian State Opera – the world premiere production from the current season returns once again to the Nationaltheater. With the festival premiere of Richard Wagner’s Die Walküre at the Nationaltheater, Tobias Kratzer and Vladimir Jurowski set another milestone for the new Munich Ring of the Nibelung, following their acclaimed production of Rheingold.
