The date has been confirmed as Thursday 25th July 2019 - sold out - second date packages for the 27th July are now on sale.
A second date has been announced for 2019. The first date is now completely sold out, with the second date being two days later, on Saturday the 27th of July. The details, timing, type of tickets, pricing - all remain the same, this is simply a case of demand being so high that a second date has been added.
We have very limited availability for this second date and, again, are offering a mix of private transfer and accommodation packages.
The 2019 edition is to be called 'Ali di Libertà' - Wings of Freedom' - and is trailed as a multi-sensory spectacular like none before, where Andrea and a host of international Belcanto singers will perform a range of operatic hits from the maestro's much loved repertoire of the past 20 years, all framed in a theme of flight, aspiration and freedom - see our blog post for further details.
We're delighted to be offering, for the first time, packages for the August 2019 concert in Taormina, Sicily - click the green button for details on that.
The Teatro del Silenzio (Theatre of Silence) is an open air amphitheatre located in a stunning position near tenor Andrea Bocelli's home town of Lajatico in Tuscany. The venue was created at Bocelli's suggestion and in July of every year typically hosts this performance, while for the rest of the year it lives up to its name and the stage area is transformed into a lake with a central platform where a series of sculptures have been exhibited. Year after year sees demand outstrip supply for this legendary event, so early booking is always recommended.
How to book package tickets for the magical outdoor Andrea Bocelli event in Tuscany:
We're delighted to be offering our packages for the 2019 edition of 'Teatro del Silenzio'. As in past years, we do not sell standalone tickets, rather packages offering tickets alongside a mix of transport and accommodation options.
Packages vary in cost according to both type of accommodation and type of ticket - all ticket types are referenced as per the seating plan above.
Note that Executive tickets include a programme, an ID bracelet for accessing the hospitality area for a welcome cocktail, an exclusive memento, and a car park space if required.
Please note that children under the age of six, when accompanied by a ticket-holding adult, do not need to pay, but they must not take up a seating space during the event. In the unlikely event of bad weather then the concert would be moved to the following day (this has never happened to date!).
Please see below the details of the various packages on offer at the moment - we do update this page regularly, adding and removing packages as availability changes.
