Opera Holland Park
In summer, well-loved operas and imaginative productions of lesser-known works are presented under a spectacular canopy against the remains of Holland House, one of the first great houses built in Kensington. The company has successfully branched out into opera for families in recent years, too. There are 1,000 tickets offered free to those ages 7–18 every season. Tickets go on general sale in April (earlier for members). The season runs through August and usually consists of six opera productions, from perennial favorites like Rossini's The Barber of Seville to lesser-performed works such as Edgar by Puccini.
