Macbeth by Nézet-Séguin as closing performance
August 2, 2026 19:00
Fernand-Lindsay Amphitheater

After having triumphed on our stage with Aida and Tristan und Isolde, Yannick Nézet-Séguin presents another magnificent Verdi opera this summer, a tale of tragic love, political intrigue, and a dark, fantastical atmosphere. Accompanied by the Orchestre Métropolitain and an exceptional vocal cast, he brings the 49th Festival to a close, just weeks before inaugurating a new production of Macbeth at the Metropolitan Opera.
