The Leipzig Opera represents more than 300 years of municipal operatic tradition and is the venue for well-known soloists, choirs and the Leipzig Gewandhausorchesters.
The Leipzig Opera – comprising opera, musical comedy, and the Leipzig Ballet – is the third oldest civic musical theater stage in Europe. Its outstanding international reputation is shaped by the Leipzig Gewandhausorchester, important soloists, an award-winning choir and the Leipzig Ballet.
The opera was founded in 1693, making it, after Hamburg, the second oldest German music theater. The Leipzig Music Trail runs directly past the opera house, and the Leipzig Jazz Days are also held here annually. The musicals and operettas included in the program are performed in the historic Haus Dreilinden (Venue Musical Comedy Theatre).
