Practical tips
- Book early for opening nights and Falstaff (16 May 2027, the theatre's 130th anniversary): they are the busiest dates.
- No car needed: the centre is a restricted traffic zone. From the building to the theatre you walk.
- After the show, restaurants around the theatre and Capo Market are just steps away.
