Become an Arts Hero

Contribute to bringing new audiences here to the Göteborg Opera.

For companies

What is an “Arts Hero”?

Your passion for culture can make a difference. As an Arts Hero, you can choose to contribute to either tickets (Kulturhjältebiljetter) or to a musical pre-party for young adults. You can donate either as an individual or a corporate partner.

Thanks to your contributions, more people who may not otherwise be able to attend will be able to experience opera, dance, musicals and orchestral music in the magical world of the Gothenburg Opera. Through your gift, you spread the joy of culture further – you become an Arts Hero.

We collaborate with organisations such as Gothenburg Stadsmission, Save the Children, Individuell Människohjälp, Kompis Sverige, schools around Region Västra Götaland and many more. Thanks to your gifts, we can also continue to lend tickets through the Opera Card, which can be borrowed at the city library.

About Musical with pre-party

Help give 1,000 young adults an unforgettable evening when we invite them together to a musical performance with a pre-party. We fill the hall with a whole new audience and during the "pre-party" our young guests get to meet actors and associations with the idea that they will find their own way into the performing arts community. Our hope is that this will become a tradition that returns year after year. Do you want to help make it possible?

About Arts Hero tickets (Kulturhjältebiljetter)

Kulturhjältebiljetter were introduced in 2022 and are used to invite groups that do not usually come to the Göteborg Opera.

Kulturhjältebiljetter are included as part of most partner agreements, whereby the partner donates a pool of money which is used to fund these tickets. Since 2025, private individuals can also contribute to Kulturhjältebiljetter with donations made when purchasing tickets online. During 2025, more than 800 Kulturhjältebiljetter have been distributed.
