Bring the class to our daytime school performances. Each year, we create a selection of performances that are particularly suitable for school classes of different ages.
A more fun lesson
Take your class to the Royal Swedish Opera and experience eternal themes filtered through the present – love, friendship, and all the other great emotions! Each year we give a number of performances on the smaller stage, the Rotunda, and some on the Main Stage.
The tickets cost SEK 70 (at the Rotunda) and SEK 100 respectively (on the Main Stage) per student.
Also keep in mind that everyone under the age of 26 goes to the Opera's regular performances for half the regular price in the entire auditorium.
School tickets cost 70 SEK (at the Rotunda) and 100 SEK (at the Main Stage) per student, and are valid for daytime performances.

Prepare your visit with your class!
If you want to know more before your visit, you can read Med spetsade öron (in Swedish).our guide to enjoying opera and ballet, children and adults together.
The guide is a support for you who are a teacher and will visit the Opera with your class, or who are thinking about doing so. It is divided into three parts.
The first part presents the art forms of opera and ballet. The second part highlights the performing arts experience itself, and questions about how art and culture can be linked to both learning and democracy. It also touches on what research says about children's audiences and their experiences of performing arts. The third part contains tips for the time before, during and after your visit, as well as suggestions for various exercises to do in the classroom both before and after you have seen a performance.

Anything in particular we should consider?
