Bregenz Festival 2027 featuring "La traviata" by Giuseppe Verdi on the Lake Stage

Production on the lake stage
Giuseppe Verdi’s masterpiece ‘La traviata’ will be performed on the lake stage for another year. The premiere will take place on 22 July 2027. The opera will be directed by Damiano Michieletto, with musical direction by Kirill Karabits and Pietro Rizzo.

Opera at the Festspielhaus
In 2027, the Festspielhaus will stage Othmar Schoeck’s late Romantic-Expressionist one-act opera *Penthesilea*, based on Heinrich von Kleist’s tragedy of the same name. In the year marking the 250th anniversary of the poet’s birth, the festival is bringing this rarely performed work back to the stage.

Orchestral concerts Vienna Symphony Orchestra and Vorarlberg Symphony Orchestra
The Vienna Symphony Orchestra under Domingo Hindoyan, Giedrė Šlekytė and Petr Popelka will present a varied programme. The festival will conclude in traditional fashion on the last Sunday with a matinee concert by the Vorarlberg Symphony Orchestra under Nick Davies.

Young Festival
The programme of the 2027 Young Festival presents various productions for young audiences from across the Lake Constance region. In addition, young festival guests in 2026 can look forward to the Children’s Festival, Young People’s Night, scenic opera workshops and the popular brass band camp, among other things.
