A weekend at the Festival d'Aix

In the morning, enjoy local products in one of the many open air markets of Aix-en-Provence and savor one of the coffees of the world offered by a brûlerie of the Place Richelme.

At noon, do not miss the master class at the Hôtel Maynier d’Oppède, rue Gaston de Saporta. There, you will get the opportunity to buy your Pass valid for all the duration of the Festival.

For lunchtime, experience a creative gourmet meal by choosing your restaurant with Table 13.

After lunch, visit the Musée Granet. Its collection includes nearly 600 paintings, sculptures and archaeological pieces.

Nearby the Musée Granet, for tea time, visit this historical site offering an extensive programme of cultural events open to all throughout the year and quietly enjoy a pastry at Café Caumont - Caumont Art Centre.

At 6pm, do not miss the Tête-à-Tête in the presbytary courtyard of the Palais de l’Ancien Archevêché to meet and discuss with an artist or a guest of the Festival.

Before the performance, the Festival invites the audience to a Prélude: an introduction to the work by shedding light on its genesis, music and libretto and taking place an hour before every opera performance at the scheduled venue.

The time for opera has come, enjoy the performance!
