In compliance with the current regulations, Associazione Arena Sferisterio has changed its seating plan by removing entire rows of seats and by allowing patrons to use one every two seats, always leaving one free. Families and people coming in together are allowed to occupy maximum three consecutive seats in the stalls. In the boxes, family groups of maximum 6 people are allowed.
To seat next to family members or close connections, please download the following form, fill it out and send it to boxoffice@sferisterio.it along with your scanned ID.

In compliance with the new social distancing norms, you won’t be allowed to sit next to another person and there shall be a free seat after each occupied seat. If you purchased two ore more seats, you will be relocated according to the new seating plan without having to change your tickets. All ticket holders will be reallocated in the initially selected rows. Ticket holders whose seat numbers have changed will receive an email with the new numbers by the box office. They shall bring the email with them on the night of the performance. All viewers will be taken to their seats by our personnel and will be instructed as to which seat shall be left free.
If you submit the form stating that you are coming with members of your family or people who live with you, you do not have to keep the distance. For more information about this, please read the section on family and close connections.
Unfortunately, the logistical and health difficulties due to the current regulations do not allow the simultaneous preparation of two new productions. The appointment with director Daniele Menghini and his under35 team, winner of the international competition held with Opera Europa and with the Rossini Opera Festival, is postponed to next year.
