Bayreuth Festspielhaus, Germany

Located in north of Bayreuth, Germany, the opera house was built for the opera performances by Richard Wagner, a well-known German composer in the 19th century. The theater was designed by Wagner and architects. Although it looks normal from the exterior, its interior design is unique, featuring a grand stage and an invisible orchestra pit. The annual Bayreuth Festival, held in July and August, is a peak in the summer performances of Germany. The festival lasts five to six weeks, attracting numerous officials, business tycoons and celebrities. You will need to purchase your tickets six months in advance.
