Premium tickets

Floor plan La Scala, Milan
You get the best tickets from us. Your seats will be in the parquet are, marked in yellow in the drawing to the right. (in Italian called Platea). With premium tickets, you enter the Teatro alla Scala through the main entrance with all the other VIPs. There is easy access to the coat area just a half-floor down. During the breaks, you can enter the “Toscanini Foyer” which is only accessible for premium ticket holders. This is the place where you can enjoy a glass of Spumante and see who is here. Elegant evening wear is recommended. We promise a most gratifying and exciting evening experience.
Unfortunately, we cannot influence the seat allocation within the parquet area. This is done by the theater. However, if you visit in two or three then these seats will be assigned next to each other. The seats are always in the yellow area, which offers the best visual and acoustic experience. On request, we might be able to secure tickets in the loges, but we do not recommend it. Unless you have the whole loge for yourself your view might be very limited and uncomfortable.
If you can make your travel plans three months ahead of the performance then we can guarantee the availability of premium tickets. The performances at the world-famous Teatro alla Scala always sell out.
There are never any remaining premium tickets at the box office on the evening of the performance. Tickets from grey sources might be fake and carry the name of another person.
There are a limited number of seats dedicated to wheelchair users and their party. Please let us know your needs.

Dress code La Scala

How to dress for La Scala?

We often receive questions about the dress code. Please allow us to give suggestions. It’s primarily about making you feel comfortable and not out of place. There is no strict dress code.

Visiting La Scala is a very emotional experience and you are sitting in the best places. We recommend elegant evening wear, gentlemen are well advised in the Smoking or suit with bow tie. Absolute minimum is slags and jacket. We recommend an elegant dress to the ladies, it may, but does not have to be a long dress. You are also well dressed in elegant trousers. You are not rejected if he comes without a tie and she wears flat shoes, by no means. But you may feel better if you can empathize and be confident with yourself.

Entrance to La Scala

With our tickets you can reach the theatre through the main entrance under the columns, where you can get directly into the lower foyer. There is a bookshop. During the breaks there are also drinks to buy.

The cloakrooms are on the right and half a floor below the auditorium on the right.

The Toscanini Foyer

Almost every performance has one break, sometimes long performances have even two breaks. To get into the beautiful Toscanini foyer with the busts of the famous musicians, you have to take the middle staircase from the lower foyer. As it is a historic theater, there is no lift.

On this occasion, you pass the balconies and you can take a look inside. From below, the rows with the balconies look quite romantic, but if you want to spend several hours for an opera in them, it can quickly get uncomfortable, particularly on the stools in the back and in the side balconies. Premium tickets are in the parquet. Best view and comfortable.

The big breaks usually last 30 minutes, then there is spumante or prosecco, of course also water and some snacks.

The inexpensive places in the upper rows of the gallery can only be reached through the entrance via the Theatre Museum. The upper rows also do not have access to the Toscanini foyer.

Taking pictures in La Scala

Photography is permitted during breaks, but strictly prohibited during the performance. The photos may only be used privately, but may not be published or posted. Not even if no people can be seen on it. The laws are quite different here in Italy. You can read this on the internet under the heading “Panorama Freedom.”

Hotels

For your music tour, you can choose between hotels 3 to 5 stars and even the 7-star hotel with butler inside Galleria Vittorio Emanuele. You will either share your preferences when booking or we will suggest which hotels offer favorable conditions during the requested period.

4 stars within walking distance of Scala: Hotel dei Cavalieri, Hotel Sina de la Ville, Starhotels Rosa Grand, Hotel Straf
