“We attended several opera dinners so far, this year we went to Potsdam and Paris and they were both extraordinary! It is a great concept, bringing arts and music in such a way to the people is really thought through! It is a bit of everything, not too much, the right dose. And on top, pricing is very fair, rather cheap for what you get when you count in the performance parts, the drinks, the party, dj etc. Thanks so much for organizing this, we are very much looking forward to attending the next edition, maybe some other exciting location in Europe? ;-)”
“Superbe soirée dans un lieu exceptionnel. Les artistes nous ont offert une prestation magnifique. C'était mon premier Opéra Dinners mais certainement pas le dernier !”
“Paris Opera Dinner was a blast !! Amazing venue,just at Champs-Elysée,impressive artists, delicious food & stunning atmosphere! So many fun and cool people!! Stayed till the end to enjoy this festive special event. Cant wait for the next one 🤩🤩👌”
“I recently attended the opera dinner in Paris, and it was an unforgettable experience. The venue was stunning, with elegant decor that perfectly set the mood for a night of culture and fun.
The service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring we were well taken care of throughout the evening.
The opera performance was the highlight, showcasing talented singers in a breathtaking setting.
I highly recommend this experience to anyone.”
“Swing meets opera ! In a lovely setup with the Palais, great performances by the swing band and the opera singers. Loving the concept, a bit of everything and not too much, topped with a party! Most fun charity support! Thanks !”
“If we had to pay over €200 per person for a ticket, then the location, catering and service must be very good or even exceptional! This was NOT the case... not at all...
In the villa, the room where the concert was held was far too small to accommodate all the guests...!
The food had to be picked up in small portions and then we had to find a couch or a chair to sit on and eat with the plate on our lap?!?!
Sorry, but providing bottomless alcohol is NOT worth the price at all.
This event was a huge failure in many ways.”
Hi Anonymous....
sorry we did not meet your expectations. Seeing the aspects you complain about show us that clearly there was a gap between what the event is and what you thought it is.
As we outline on our website the main purpose is to support the emerging talents and combine that with an easy going party. It is not to get as much food as possible for your money nor is it to sit in front of a stage like in a concert hall.
As you might have overseen it, a big part of the money of your ticket (by the way, there is also cheaper early bird tickets for those who can make up their mind in time) goes to support the artists and musicians, the original purpose of the event.
You probably did not check out the website for more information or check out any of the videos linked there or on instagram as well, otherwise you would have seen that the event character is supposed to be more fluid, crowded etc.
There never has been a seated dinner but it is always flying food or buffet style, standing at high tables or sitting somewhere with your plate on your lab or small tables indeed.
We are sorry that you did not see this information, maybe in the future you should try to make sure you really understand what the event you want to go to is about.
In any case we transferred your money back. Again we are sorry you were so disappointed with the opera dinner concept.
Best,
Opera Dinners team
“Great fun, breathtaking location, wonderful selection of musicians and DJs afterwards, delicious food and drinks, great organisation, excellent value for money!”
“One of the best events I ever went to! The concept is so smart, the location was beautiful, the singers, piano player and band were next level performers, delicious food; abundant drinks and a great party with a superbe DJ! Wow! Thanks so much for that! Ah by the way, I don't know how you make money or how much the sponsors pay, but also for what I got... very cheap, probably too cheap! For sure coming to Paris! Thanks for the invite!!”
