Ball at the Opera 2026

The Blagoevgrad Chamber Opera is delighted to invite you to “Ball at the Opera” — a festive evening inspired by the elegance of the European ballroom tradition.

For the first time in the city, classical music, ballroom dancing, and an elegant cocktail reception will come together in an event shaped by the guests themselves — through their presence, elegance, and participation.

The evening will open with a celebratory gala concert featuring a special guest. Live music will then usher in the formal ball.

Ballroom dancing will be informal, with no set choreography or special preparation required. Guests are invited to join in according to their own feel for the music and enjoyment of the dance.

A cocktail reception featuring a selection of culinary delights will round out the evening, while the foyers will offer a chance to meet and talk between dances. Festive décor, evening attire, and the orchestra’s live performance will create an atmosphere where grandeur blends naturally with relaxed conversation.

After the formal ball, the evening will continue with more music and dancing. The special guest and other program surprises will be announced soon.

Formal evening attire is required.

Early-bird tickets available until 8 November 2026. Single ticket — €70 Pair of tickets — €120

We would be delighted to welcome you to the first “Ball at the Opera.”
