Welcome to Longborough Festival Opera, presenting  opera in the Cotswolds. Our 2010 season includes new productions of Wagner’s Die Walküre, Mozart’s Don Giovanni and Puccini’s Madama Butterfly

The Opera House at Longborough seats almost 500 and has an orchestra pit accommodating 65 players.   It is built in the grounds of our house on the edge of the Cotswold village of Longborough with views across the Evenlode Valley, and has been included in the latest Pevsner guide to buildings in England.

Evening performances usually start at 6.30pm and have a 90 minute interval for picnicking in the grounds or dining in the popular LFO restaurant.  There are also facilities for private dining and corporate entertaining.

We look forward to welcoming you to Longborough in 2010.

“A lovely drive to the Cotswolds was a delightful introduction to a magical evening in the grounds of a gracious mansion in the tiny village of Longborough”
