Cairo Opera House

The Cairo Opera House is one of my favorite spots in the city. It truly feels like an island of culture amidst Cairo’s hustle and bustle. Whether you're a fan of the arts or just looking for a place to enjoy a peaceful moment, this venue offers something for everyone. The Opera House features a museum, an art gallery, and a cafeteria on the premises, making it a wonderful place to explore and unwind. While the cafe is convenient, it could definitely use a little improvement in both design and menu to match the cultural vibe. When it comes to performances, the orchestra and ballet shows are always exceptional and enjoyable. The experience of live music and graceful ballet is something truly special, making each visit memorable. If you’re in Cairo and looking for a cultural retreat, the Cairo Opera House is a must-visit. You can easily check the Opera House's schedule and book tickets online, making it hassle-free to plan your visit in advance

It was my first time visiting the Cairo Opera House and I absolutely adored it! So beautiful inside and out! We went to see The Nutcracker on Sunday evening. Was a splendid show. The cast, costumes, orchestra, and set was highly impressive. It's easy to see they put so much work and effort into their performance. A very, very talented and professional group of people. I can't wait to come back!

Beautiful building. I didn't go inside, but it's free to enter the area (past guards). Also, the museum of modern art and a few interesting statues to admire.

Wow, open-air concerts are such a vibe! 🤩 I love being able to enjoy the music and the outdoors at the same time. It's true, the venue can really elevate the entire experience. Though, I've always wondered what it's like to attend an indoor concert. 🤔 There's something so captivating about the idea of being surrounded by music and lights. Maybe one day! ✨ #ConcertGoals #MusicLover

Had the pleasure to attend one of Tchaikovsky’s great pieces “Swan Lake” ballet show at the Grand Hall. The event was well organized. I was a bit disappointed as it was mentioned that a live orchestra will be performing but it was just the sound system 💔

It is one of the most amazing cultural spots in cairo. Here, I am enjoying a sahlab drink in winter in a decent cafeteria inside. That was after I toured in the modern art museum where amazing artworks made by talented Egyptian artists are displayed.

We had a wonderful party there, it was very well organized and sophisticated.

I had the wonderful chance to easily find tickets just a day before a show, despite a popular culture festival going on. The main hall is beautiful and there is a small museum inside the opera on its history, including items from the first performance of Aida. Enjoyed it thoroughly.
