Public booking is open for Buxton International Festival

Public booking is open for Buxton International Festival

It's a huge pleasure to be able to offer a wide-ranging programme of opera, music and books once again and we look forward to welcoming you to venues across Buxton in July. 

The response to our first wave of booking has been fantastic, which means that many events now have limited availability. While we hope that restrictions will be eased in June, we recommend booking early to reserve your seats. You can find the full programme on our website. There will be one more exciting author event, which will be announced very soon and we'll be sharing this with our newsletter subscribers first so keep an eye on your inbox!


A Little Night Music

Open your heart to A Little Night Music. In this bittersweet tale of romantic possibility, Stephen Sondheim brings his trademark wit and talent to intertwine opera with musical comedy.

This is the very first joint production between Buxton Opera House and Buxton International Festival, and the performance on Thursday 8th July will celebrate the re-opening of the Opera House after a long lockdown.

Reserve tickets for A Little Night Music.
