The Göteborg Opera was inaugurated in 1994 and is to be found next to Lilla Bommen by Göteborg harbour. Here opera, dance, concerts and musicals are performed under the same roof. The Göteborg Opera has 250,000 visitors per year and about 270 performances are given on the different stages. Several international stars have visited the opera house through the years. Nina Stemme, Peter Mattei and Katarina Dalayman are a few of them. The Göteborg Opera also houses GöteborgsOperans Danskompani, one of the foremost contemporary dance companies in Europe and the largest in the Nordic region. With access to legendary choreographers as well as some of the most interesting new generation of dance makers and artists, the dancers of Göteborgsoperans Danskompani contribute towards new expressions and the generation of new exciting art forms. The Göteborg Opera Restaurant has placed a clear emphasis on developing its environmental philosophy. Almost 40 percent of the groceries that are purchased for the Göteborg Opera's kitchen are organic or locally produced. This makes for a vibrant menu with seasonal variation. Are you looking for something special for your next customer or staff event? The Göteborg Opera has exactly what you need. Our central location and exclusive and spacious facilities make The Göteborg Opera the perfect place for all events, from small breakfast seminars and sit-down three course meals to large-scale canapé and drinks events. Our kitchen uses local produce wherever possible and organic alternatives are available. Our aim is for you to enjoy a meal that is above and beyond the usual - everything we do, from food and drink to service and attitude is first class. On certain dates you may also use the Main Stage and its 1,280 seat auditorium.
