• Join us for a spectacular 8-day tour of Adelaide, with the highlight being Zeffirelli’s grand production of Aida, the first ever production from the Arena di Verona to be staged outside of Verona.
• This is a colossal production where 28 containers will be shipped, filled with monumental sets, props, costumes, musical instruments, and technical equipment. These items are described as “works of art” and are essential for recreating the opulent 100-metre-wide Egyptian staging.
• There is an international cast including stars like Jonas Kaufmann and Angel Blue, 389 performers and staff from Verona, 106 musicians of the Arena Di Verona Orchestra, 100
members of the Verona chorus, the Arena di Verona Ballet, plus 300 local cast and crew including 155 extras and a 50-member chorus from the State Opera South so over 600
performers will recreate this massive production!
• If you have always wanted to experience opera on the grand scale of Verona, this is your chance to do so much closer to home!
• Other events including a show (part of the Adelaide Festival - to be confirmed), 3 of our own fabulous concerts: The Golden Age of Musicals in our hotel ballroom, a casual fun evening Family Soiree and a finale dinner and concert at a beautiful vineyard as we transport you to Europe with A European Romance!
• Also included is a Murray River lunch cruise on the Proud Mary, Barossa Valley tour including lunch, high tea river cruise, Botanic Garden visit, art gallery, lavender farm and vineyard dinner, Fleurieu Peninsula day trip and Hahndorf shopping day!
• Hosted and music presented by our artists: Alex Milligan, Kalauni Pouvalu, Amanda Atlas and Paul Carnegie-Jones.
