Overview

Conceived in 1776 as a fitting replacement for the Teatro Ducale (sadly destroyed by fire), the famous Teatro alla Scala has since become one of opera's legendary venues. Home to the prestigious La Scala di Milano opera company, it remains one of the city's liveliest cultural venues.  Apart from opera shows, guests will also enjoy the plays, ballet shows and numerous other cultural events held here throughout the year.
