We would like to eat before the performance begins—what are the options?
At the restaurant in Skäret, you can enjoy our Opera Buffet. The buffet is served before and after the performance, except on August 14, 16, and 21, when it is only served before the curtain goes up.

After the performance, simpler dishes are also available, but these can only be bought on-site.

We recommend purchasing the buffet in advance, up to 10 days before your visit.

Can we bring our own picnic?
You are welcome to eat your picnic at the tables adjacent to the parking lot. Picnicking is not allowed on the opera grounds.
