Schools

At the Opéra Royal de Wallonie-Liège, gives a lot importance to pupils, students and their teachers. Whether they come from general, technical, vocational, artistic or specialised education, schools can always find a link to learning at the Opéra.

Coming to the Opera with your class

Coming to the Opera means discovering a unique art form and the emotions it can arouse; it also means reflecting on society and its values through the themes addressed; it means discovering the breathtaking architecture of the theatre; and it means coming into contact with professions and skills that deserve to be known and promoted. More than 10,000 young people and children from the age of 4, from all over Belgium, attend the shows and activities offered by the Opera every year.

Whether you teach at nursery, primary, secondary or higher education level, we’ll help you find an activity that matches your teaching objectives!
