Bregenz Festival|||A short month of summer passion and revelry each year

|||A short month of summer passion and revelry each year. Everyone, go for it——Bregenz Festival😍, it will definitely be an unforgettable experience! Save it now, you must go next year!!!! If you are in Europe or Austria from July to September, rush over!!! It will be a trip without regrets. The Bregenz Festival is one of the most important festivals and events in Austria each year, and also one of the most important opera festivals in the world, right at the junction of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria on Lake Constance. By the lakeside, you can fully enjoy the magnificent sunset🌈 while comfortably watching an opera, how romantic is that! At the Bregenz Festival, every year there is a super famous opera performed on the open-air stage on the water, which is many times more impressive than watching in a theater! And the stage design each year is so eye-catching, it really leaves a lasting impression! Below is an introduction to the operas that have been performed 🎭Stage Feast | The Magical Journey of the Bregenz Festival on Water🎭 🧊The stage design for the opera 'Carmen' is actually a pair of woman's hands holding a cigarette, and the cards scattered from the hands😮! This unique design was inspired by the 'Card Song' in the third act: Carmen foresees her inescapable fate through card reading, no matter how the cards are shuffled, destiny cannot be changed. 🧊'Rigoletto' was wonderfully presented on the lakeside stage of the Bregenz Festival, attracting thousands of music and opera fans😍, and even won the Opus - German Stage Award! The panoramic view of Lake Constance is simply astonishing, and the carefully designed stage continuously brings out new, dynamic, and surprising ideas! On stage, the actors move around a movable clown's head, walking in a fantasy world, where every move of the clown supports the dramatic structure of this world-famous opera🤡. 🧊The giant eye installation for 'Tosca' is the theme of the massive stage, and when the eyeball opens, it becomes the stage for the actors to perform to their heart's content, this design concept is simply too creative👁️! 🧊'Madame Butterfly' weighs 300 tons, yet miraculously floats on the water, as if it were a weightless piece of paper! 🧊The performers of 'A Masked Ball' perform on a huge, open book—'The Book of the Dance of Life'. Death is represented by a 25-meter-tall, 30-ton skeleton looming over the book, creating an intense atmosphere😱! 🧊'Andrea Chénier', a romantic Italian opera composed by the Italian composer Umberto Giordano in 1896, is set in Paris in the second half of the 18th century and tells the life story of the famous poet and politician Andrea Chénier. Its stage inspiration comes from Jacques-Louis David's famous painting 'The Death of Marat'🖼️. 🧊In 'The Magic Flute', three standing dragons with their sharp fangs bite onto a rope bridge, surrounding a giant green turtle, whose back sometimes extends spikes of different lengths. Its stage design is full of fairy-tale colors, with the actors mainly performing on the turtle's back and the rope bridge🐢. ⚠️⚠️⚠️①Be sure to buy tickets in advance!!! When buying tickets in May, there are hardly any seats left😮! ②During the festival, you can ride the bus for free with a ticket for the day🚌! And there are corresponding discounts for museum tickets🎫! ③For accommodation, you can choose to stay in a slightly distant village, the transportation is super convenient, and it only takes fifteen minutes to get there🚗, no worries after watching the play, there will still be transportation😎! ④The festival will also have other regular plays, but the theater is very close by, so don't go to the wrong place🤔 (Additionally, if you are short on time, you can choose to skip it, because compared to the main opera of the year, it's quite ordinary, the kind that can be seen in any theater).
