Opera theatre La Scala Reviews

It is a very beautiful place, especially for those who like the Opera.

Very interesting trip although I know nothing about opera. Im amazed to see them prepare and practice for the show, how the talented people commit and work very hard.

Once at least in the life to visit, to attend an unmissable opera and concert

Big. Full of history Essential if you like the world of music.

Forza Italia, we will return to live in Beauty and Culture

Building quite common from the outside and the doors were closed !! So nothing seen from inside !! Beautiful little place in front with access to the gallery!

Worth a visit for the historical value. If you can watch a show.

It was so heavy that I couldn't think it was that Scala.

Beautiful theatre. Worth every penny going to see it. Lots of very interesting things to see
Also everyone was very helpful and polite.

Not nearly as beautiful as some theaters and opera houses in other cities. Looks like any ordinary building in Rome.

Evocative building, fundamental for Italian Risorgimento music

One of the most beautiful theaters in the world. Very rich programming that goes against the tastes of all opera, orchestra and ballet lovers

The theater par excellence! A concert, a ballet or an opera. Always magical and splendid.

For those visiting the city this is one of the most interesting places that should definitely be visited even in the case of a short stay. It shouldn't be missing from the list of places to go. Place of historical and cultural interest.

I seemed careless, I liked more the one of Paris and the Colon of Buenos Aires

Each performance offers unique emotions, this evening, with Bellini's 'il pirata', expectations have been more than exceeded.

Council visit to the scale museum. Contains costumes of the works. Curiosity. Sheet music. Paintings on artists. In short, a wunderkammer of music. More view on the theater of the staircase from the stage.

and the most beautiful part of Italian and world music.
in the historic center of Milan

Once in a lifetime, this place is definitely worth visiting, if only out of .... curiosity

Quietly brilliant theatre! If you are on a trip to Milan it's one of that places that you shouldn't miss.

Enchanted place where immense emotions are lived. Everything perfect, always!

I was satisfied with the original dishes on the menu, I had never tasted anything like this around, I don't give 5 stars because three out of three times I've been there the epitaph was missing.

Outside it is a place like any other ... inside it is ... A whole other story !!!

Super monument accessible for people with reduced mobility and free for it is an accompaniment.

The famous opera, and in appearance a very modest building

Legendary theater. Awesome repertoire, star performer cue composition. If we ignore the myths and charisma of this place and compare it with such great scenes as the Grand Opera of Vienna, Pale Garnier, then La Scala loses much of its convenience, service for viewers during intermissions, in themed souvenir and music products offered to guests. It is striking that viewers in different areas of the hall cannot enter the main hall of the theater during the intermission. Ladders and passages are guarded by guardians and blocked by chains. If you have a place in the tiers, then look at the theater during intermission, go down to the ground, go to the orchestra pit will not work. All impression will be limited to a narrow corridor with empty painted walls. Run through the theater is possible only at the end of the performance when all the transitions open for the exit. This is nowhere to meet. Tickets are expensive even for uncomfortable seats. A minimum of comfort and decent seating is provided by a price above 200 euros. On the tier, even in the first row at a price of more than 100 euros, the audience literally squeezed into small chairs. But this is a problem with all old theaters with boxes. You can only buy expensive places in them, so as not to spoil the impression of high art with stiff legs, stuffiness and a sense of shoulder from neighbors pressed to you.

Evocative place full of history. Very interesting adjacent museum. To visit

Indescribable, I was lucky enough to go there many times and it was always beautiful and perfect

Ernani in La Scala : great singers , luxurious costumes and good views .

Nice building and it is highly recommended to take a look inside to enjoy the beautiful room.

I watched a Russian ballet, but I was moved by the audience. Advance tickets can be purchased underground in the Duomo square in Milan. The scalpers are hanging out even if the seats you want are sold out. Naturally the price was high but I thought it was better than I couldn't see and purchased it. He had come to sell the unsold tickets in front of Scala on the day. It is OK to take pictures during the intermission.

Staff not very attentive to those who then managed to sneak into the structure. The place is beautiful, but for the spaces they visit, the cost is excessive. However, the building is disappointing, there is a lot of money around the staircase and it is not well maintained

Never buy tickets for the 5th balcony in the 3rd row, nothing is visible, the entrance is not through the main entrance, but from the side, the atrium is allowed only after the end of the opera!

Very nice but like uncomfortable seating for the price you pay. You see little and nothing if you are not in front. We know the rest is splendid.

Such a beautiful place is really hard to find. You can literally feel which masters and crayons have worked here and work. Tip: book early tickets, otherwise it will be difficult to get to which.
The piece Idomeneo was wonderfully staged and beautifully presented.

Very nice and I will definitely come back here again

An elegant, historical centerpiece of performing arts. One of the few places you'll see busts that are hilariously oversized for their mounts. My main complaint is they need a better system to manage people's cell phones during performances. First act of opening night of Romeo and Juliet was nearly ruined by obnoxious people didn't holster their cell phones properly. Some people flash, while some didn't even turn off silent mode and their phone cameras made obnoxious noises while flashing! The theater should adopt a zero tolerance policy or use lock-up boxes like other venues are starting to do.

The building itself is not the most beautiful outside. But inside the room opens a fairy tale.

Awesome. We saw Tamerlano with Placido Domingo. All good except that the armchairs are dwarf and super uncomfortable

It s a very special experience. Although I don t understand it, I ll check the plot on the Internet and feel the emotion of the sound and the sound effects of the theater. There is an exclusive bathroom outside each box. There is no need to line up during the intermission, which is completely different from Taiwan. If you have time, you can experience it~

To see from the side because the square did not exist when it was built

Always happy and satisfied.
Both being in the gallery and on stage, fantastic experiences.
Absolutely to try at least once in a lifetime.

Fh

View only from outside

Gorgeous

I was not able to visit the interior because it was necessary to reserve, and frankly it was complicated to find this information.
From the outside, it is an extremely ordinary building and not particularly beautiful.
It seems that everything is happening inside.

Fantastic experience. It was for many years that I did not return to La Scala and it seems to me even better. Do not miss the chance of a show.

The place is fantastic, one of the best opera houses in the world !!! A wonderful museum, wonderful environment, in short I recommend to everyone !!!

An exceptional location. You feel proud to be Italian

The acoustic is amazing. No mics and both the singer and the piano sounded clean, rich and beautiful.

It is one of the most beautiful theaters and most famous in the world !!! It is one of the symbols of Milan !!! It is a magical place where the greatest interpreters of the work have passed. It is part of the history of Italy !!!! This seems to me sufficient for the five stars, indeed maybe it would take some more!

experience to be done unfortunately this year 2020 + was notably negative due to this hateful pandemic that left a lot of sadness but I hope that the Milan Scale will recover soon and with it all the artists, musicians and professionals. Well done
