Top class artists on stage and illustrious names in the audience: the festival opera gala in aid of the German AIDS Foundation will be held for the 11th time in 2020. Not only is this a popular classical music performance and major social event, it is now one of Germany’s leading charitable occasions. International opera stars and award-winning singers from the Deutsche Oper am Rhein’s own ensemble perform a splendid programme of music from operas, operettas and musicals together with the Duisburger Philharmoniker. In 2020 star tenor and director Rolando Villazón will compere the evening for the first time. All the artists waive their fees so that all the proceeds can once again be donated to the German AIDS Foundation’s aid projects in Düsseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia and Mozambique. By buying a ticket and making a donation you can actively support this vital relief for people with HIV/AIDS.
