Passion for culture makes a difference. Thanks to your contributions, more people will have the opportunity to experience opera, dance, musicals and orchestral concerts at the Göteborg Opera. You can contribute as a private individual or as a corporate partner.

Through your gift, you spread the joy of the performing arts – and become a hero for culture.

What is an “Arts Hero”?

An Arts Hero makes it possible for new audiences – who for various reasons do not currently visit us – to experience a performance here at the Gothenburg Opera. To reach new audiences, we collaborate with organisations such as Göteborgs Stadsmission, Save the Children, Individual Human Help, Kompis Sverige, Västra Götaland’s schools and many more. Thanks to your gift, we can also continue to lend tickets through the Opera Card (Operankortet), which can be borrowed from city libraries. Read more

For companies

For private individuals

When buying your ticket online you’ll be presented with the opportunity to donate. Your contribution will be used to make it possible for more people to discover performing arts. Thanks to your generosity, we can invite new audiences who would not normally come to us. In connection with your ticket purchase, you can donate 100, 150 or 300 kronor.

If you would like to know more about private donations, please contact eva.essvik@opera.se
