Lyon’s Opera House stands majestically on Place de la Comédie, offering an awe-inspiring sight that can sometimes put people off entering the building.

However, the Opera is working hard to open its doors wide to the general public and make itself more accessible. In addition to its outdoor events, and the presentation of timeless works brilliantly performed by its orchestra, the Opera is now offering a more adventurous programme of music with ‘Opéra Underground’.
