Background

While our wonderful building is closed to the public, we are bringing you three very special performances streamed live from the Royal Opera House as part of our #OurHouseToYourHouse series.

Live from Covent Garden will celebrate ballet and opera in programmes of dance and music, curated by artistic directors of the Royal Opera House: Antonio Pappano, Music Director of The Royal Opera, Oliver Mears, Director of Opera, and Kevin O’Hare, Director of The Royal Ballet.

This is the third of a series of three live concerts, the first performances to happen at the Royal Opera House since we closed our doors on 17 March. You can watch the event – or share with a friend as a gift – for £4.99.
