In the Ulriksdal Palace Park you will find the rediscovered treasure from 1753 that is Confidencen, Sweden’s oldest rococo theatre. On its stage King Gustavus III and Carl Michael Bellman performed in the late 1700s, as have most of the greatest Swedish singers and dancers of today, making it both an integral part of Swedish cultural history and a highly vivid theatre. This summer Confidencen will host the second edition of a new festival with some of Europe’s most renowned baroque artists in the historic surroundings of Ulriksdal Palace. With Confidencen Opera & Music Festival, the artistic director and conductor Olof Boman wishes to create a space for new musical experiences.
Due to the current situation the Confidencen Opera & Music Festival 2020 programme will go through some changes. The opera production Venus & Adonis | Dido & Aeneas and the choreographed concert Hail! Bright Cecilia! will be postponed by one year to the summer 2021. The rest of the festival will take place 13th – 16th of August in a more condensed form. The complete programme will be presented soon.
