On an August evening, the audience is treated to some of the most cherished opera arias by Giuseppe Verdi, W. A. Mozart, Gaetano Donizetti and others.

Urkuyö & Aaria: Masters and new voices – a Finnish National Opera gala

Tapiola Church

This impactful opera is an experience unlike anything seen before at the Finnish National Opera. In an uprising on a farm, a group of animals overthrow their farmer’s tyrannical reign. Little by little, their new society begins to mirror human civilisation, and their original principles of equality are cast aside.

The Phantom of the Opera, one of the all-time favourites at the Finnish National Opera, has had over a hundred sold-out performances in Finland. Globally, it’s estimated that Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera (1986) has been seen by over 140 million people, making it the world’s most popular musical.

In this new production, Aida unfolds not in the distant world of the pharaohs, but against the backdrop of the modern Middle East — a landscape shaped by political tension, shifting alliances, and the human cost of conflict. At the heart of the opera lies the impossible love between Aida and Radamès, crushed between loyalty, power, and identity.
