Berlin's Musical Festival Venue Turns 20

Berlin's Bebelplatz transformed into a musical festival venue for the 20th edition of 'Staatsoper für alle', a premier open-air event organised by the Staatsoper Unter den Linden and BMW. The event drew more than 30,000 visitors under sunny skies.

The live broadcast of Giuseppe Verdi's 'Nabucco' and the concert by the Staatskapelle Berlin were two extraordinary open-air musical events that thrilled audiences.

The audience was treated to free admission, making opera and concerts accessible to everyone in the heart of Berlin.

On Saturday evening, the live broadcast from the Staatsoper was conducted by Francesco Lanzillotta and featured notable singers.

The Children's Opera Orchestra and members of the International Opera Studio performed on Sunday morning with works by Jacques Offenbach and Jules Massenet.

The event showcased the special power of music in unifying people and making opera freely accessible to everyone.

As in previous years, the event was held under the patronage of Kai Wegner, Berlin's Governing Mayor.
