Midsummer celebration in Venetian style

According to reliable sources, Mozart's "Magic Flute" is about overcoming boundaries and merging opposites: Reason and emotion, feminine and masculine, day and night, sun and moon. And we at the festival say it anyway: let yourselves be unbounded! So on this year's Midsummer's Day, the sun and moon have decided to say "I do" to each other at our festival center of all places - and to hold an exuberant masked ball to celebrate their wedding. The guests? That's you. All you need is a beautiful, elegant, fantastic, adventurous, geometric, Venetian costume. Animals, high nobility, celestial bodies, tuxedos, glitter and fiddly bits of all kinds are possible and expressly encouraged. But please don't forget the most important thing: a mask! (If necessary, we also have one.) Dance, sing and enjoy the magical life in our colorful "Garden of the Arts", the festival center at OPAL. Enjoy live bands, dance performances, arias and other craziness. Let's strip away the boundaries of our everyday existence - and merge all opposites: "Each of us is equipped with two arms, two legs, a stomach and a head. Just think about it."
