Join us this October for our visit to the Verdi Festival, Parma. During our stay we have performances of Verdi's masterpieces Falstaff and Otello at the Teatro Regio in Parma; Macbeth (the original 1847 version) in the bijou Teatro Giuseppe Verdi, Busseto, an the Verdi Requiem at the Teatro Regio. Top price stalls seats are included for all four performances. We stay at the 5* Grand Hotel de la Ville (where we stayed last year for the first time) on a bed & breakfast basis. The hotel was rated highly by our 2024 guests.
We will spend our days getting to know the historic city of Parma, visiting the birth place of Toscanini in Parma and of Verdi outside Busseto; visiting Luciano Pavarotti's home and museum near to Modena & spending time in the "city of Stradavari" Cremona, home to an excellent museum celebrating his work.
