SNG Opera in balet Ljubljana

It is nice to see that the show was sold out and that performance was exellent and that the place is well maintained. For all opera fans don't expect that this opera house is huge like in other European towns and citys, but it has a wonderful, unique atmosphere and warm chic of this small country and its society. Thanks to all employees from stagehands, ticket takers, cleaners, accountant till stars of this theater. 🤩🫰⚘️💐👏

I love coming here, even tho i sometimes get dissapointed by the level of negligence Slovenia has for finer art like opera💓 A few opera singers they pride with and use often are really good and can easily make a tear roll down my cheek, but the side roles are the thing that makes me wonder....can i return the ticket please? But then i hear the lead sing and its allright again 💁🏼‍♀️🌸 Cudos to this buildings architech J.V Hrasky because it really stands out as the most beautiful one in our gray and dull town of Ljubljana.

Whether an opera or a ballet, I am always overwhelmed by the performances. It is like magic to me. The building itself speaks stories, as well. It has become one of my favourite places to visit and enjoy. See you again soon.

went to see the nutcracker and was there 45 minutes before and the main entrance wasn't open yet (it opened 40 minutes before the show, entrance to the venue opens 20 minutes before the show, so don't come too early). the lobby is quite small and the whole venue is divided into stalls, boxes/lodges and gallery. the enterior is in parts in a bad condition, so refurbishing is highly needed. the views are good wherever your seat is (I sat in the first row, where you can see the show and the orchestra playing). there are lots of toilets on each floor (most busy ones are in the basement) and croupiers will gladly help you with seating. I didn't like the fact that there is a net between the stage and the audience. the performance itself was nice and at a high level.

It is one of the best things to do in Ljubljana. The Opera house is sooo great. The location is wonderful. The staff are extremely helpful, professional, and friendly. I was lucky with the show that I have attended (Don Quixote), which is a novel by Miguel de Cervantes. There was a problem that they (management) must take care of it. It is strange and weird that the cafeteria where people go to enjoy a drink at the usual break, don't accept cards (bank or credit cards - only cash!! Really? In 2024!! We, foreigners, were not informed about that, and that was the ONLY bad thing about the Opera House of Ljubljana. Recommended to the max.

A great way to start getting into the music world. The opera was funny and it was made differently than you would expect. I recommend it!

Although it has a slightly strange colour, it is still a beautiful building in the modern part of Ljubljana which is worth seeing

I saw a performance of Werther and it was ok, but there was quite a lot of talking and noise in the audience. I had a seat on the balcony I felt very close and well connected to the scene.
