UniCredit, a pan-European banking group with strong Italian roots, and TicketOne have won the Arena Foundation’s tender for the management of its ticketing services from 2022 to 2024, including the 100th edition of the Opera Festival, which will take place from June 17 to September 4, 2022, with performances at the Arena di Verona and the Teatro Filarmonico.
UniCredit continues to support the Arena di Verona Opera Festival, which it has supported since 1994. The Roman Amphitheatre, which hosts the festival, is one of Italy’s most famous landmarks, and it was recently restored thanks to a 14 million euro joint grant from UniCredit and Fondazione Cariverona.
Andrea Orcel, CEO of UniCredit, commented: “The Opera Festival of the Arena di Verona is one of the most famous and highly appreciated artistic and musical events in the world, not least because of its unique setting. The Arena is a symbol of Italy’s vast cultural heritage which UniCredit is committed to actively promote, always making it accessible to an increasingly wide audience.”
Online sales for the 2022 edition have already begun on the website www.arena.it, with access to a rich programme of 46 evenings, five opera productions, and three special events.
