The Arena di Verona has announced a time change for its opening performance on June 16.

The company said, “the Aida Premiere on June 16, 2023 will start at 9:00 pm instead of at 9:15 pm. The event will be broadcast worldwide by RAI television so audiences should take their seats by 8:40 pm.”

The June 16 performance of “Aida” will star Anna Netrebko in the title role alongside Yusif Eyvazov. The cast will also include Olesya Petrova, Simon Lim, Michele Pertusi, and Roman Burdenko. Stefano Poda will direct the new production, which Marco Armiliato will conduct.

The Arena di Verona is set to celebrate its 100th anniversary during the 2023 season. It will also present productions of “Rigoletto,” “La Traviata,” “Nabucco,” “Carmen,” “Il Barbiere di Siviglia,” and “Tosca.”
