La Traviata tickets at Teatro alla Scala
Searching for La Traviata tickets means searching for one of the most beloved operas ever written. Composed by Giuseppe Verdi to a libretto by Francesco Maria Piave, and based on Alexandre Dumas fils' novel and play La Dame aux camélias, the work premiered in 1853 and tells the story of Violetta Valéry, a Parisian courtesan who sacrifices her own happiness for the man she loves, Alfredo Germont, only for tuberculosis to claim her in the final act. Few operas balance dazzling brilliance and intimate heartbreak quite like this one.
The score is a parade of melodies the whole world recognises. The act-one drinking song Libiamo ne' lieti calici (the famous "Brindisi") raises every glass in the house, Violetta's soul-searching Sempre libera tests the agility of the finest sopranos, and Alfredo's father unspools the warm baritone plea Di Provenza il mar. By the time the orchestra whispers the fragile prelude to the final scene, the tragedy has become almost unbearably moving.
This hub gathers all upcoming La Traviata performances at Teatro alla Scala in one place, so you can compare dates and seating at a glance. Seeing it live, in a full opera house with a live orchestra rising from the pit and voices filling the auditorium unamplified, is an experience no recording can reproduce. The 12 upcoming events listed here are your way in.
Teatro alla Scala, Milan
Teatro alla Scala, at Via Filodrammatici 2 in the heart of Milan (20121), is one of the most storied opera houses in the world. Opened in 1778 and rebuilt after wartime damage, its horseshoe auditorium of tiered boxes, gilded balconies and a grand central chandelier creates an intimacy and acoustic warmth that has hosted premieres by Verdi, Puccini and Rossini. Stepping inside is part of the occasion: the red-and-gold interior feels every bit the temple of Italian opera that it is.
The theatre sits a short walk from the Duomo and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. The closest Metro stations are Duomo (M1 and M3) and Cordusio (M1), both within a few minutes on foot; numerous trams and buses also serve Piazza della Scala. Arriving from further afield, Milano Centrale and Cadorna stations connect directly by Metro.
