Carmen at Arena di Verona
Carmen
The life of Don José, a young brigadier of service in Seville, is fatally upset by the encounter with Carmen, a beautiful gypsy who enrages him with her charm. She forgets Micaela, the adoptive sister she intended to marry, and his military career also suffered a sharp arrest.
Arena di Verona
Arena is the Roman amphitheater of Verona. It was built in the first century A.D. to witness gladiators fighting. It is the third Roman amphitheater in size among those still existing and is used in the summer for opera, concerts and events. It is the monument that most represents the city.

Verona – The City
Close to Garda Lake, Verona is a city of rare beauty, set back against the hills to the north and laid out harmoniously along the smooth curves of the Adige river. Founded as a commercial and political town in Roman times, traces of this period remain with the massive Arena, the Roman theatre, the Gavi Arch and the Borsari gate, as well as the archaeological area of Porta Leoni and that of the Scaligeri excavations. Large sections of the ancient walls are still standing and they bear witness – along with the monumental gates and other fortifications – to the strategic importance of the city.
Verona is also full of prestigious cultural institutions, from the ancient Civic Capitolare Library to the university and the oldest Music academy in the world. The Fondazione Arena has been producing stunning opera productions for its 15.000 capacity audience for over a hundred years, and every summer an international crowd packs the open-air theatre to cheer each performance.
