Hear from singers, musicians, dancers, and other roles at the Göteborg Opera as they share insights into their craft and passion. At the same time, you’ll build valuable connections with interesting people within the network.
A Curious (Nyfiken på) lunch runs from 11:00 to 13:00, with a varying format depending on the theme. Each session begins with a specific topic or experience, which serves as a springboard for further conversation among guests and colleagues from our the many professions at the Opera. An invitation with further details will be sent out ahead of each event.
You pay for your own lunch (159 kr, VAT included) and enjoy the daily special—accompanied by coffee and a treat—while taking in the view over the river.
