This culture event is on of the must see events which you will find each summer in Bregenz. the stage on the lake of constanze is impressive and you will enjoy the evening, independent of the play or opera which is presented. The stage for itself can be seen the whole day and is a nice visit worth anytime.

We visited Bregenz during the festival expecting there to be lots going on. However, apart from some musicians in the park there wasn't much going on. Unfortunately it was quite rainy when we visited so perhaps that put a dampener on things!

we saw Magic Flute at the festival. We've seen it a number of times including covent garden and this was easy the best production. The quality of singing was amazing for the open.One tip, Bregenz is not much to right home about.If we go again, we would stay in Lindau, which is lovely, and get the special festival ferry across.

Advance sales have already started for 2015 to open with Puccini's Turandot but you can come and admire the architecture any time now. Gorgeous setting on the lake, well thought out, yet understated design, creates a striking impact on a cool clear autumn day.

Even the rain could not dampen our enthusiasm or that of the cast. My first, but not last visit. Set was fantastic, far more humorous than I imagined. Fireworks topped it all off.

I speak no German but this show transcends language. The costumes and the sets are fantastical. We sat in a light rain and were mesmerized. If there is a chance of rain spend a Euro for the rain poncho. From what I understand the show changes every 2 years. For now it is. The Magic Flute. See it if you are in Bregenz.

Ist a bit of Change, for me at leastr, having seen and heared Magic Flute so many times. at very very good directorships like Salzburg, Berlin, Munich and Covent Garden.Singing and sticking to the original plot is not in the Forefront of the Bregenz Version.Instead, the huge Silhouette of the Lake Constance, the uber-huge stage and the lack of Limitations of a building, take precedent. You see fireworks, artistic parts of abseiling, etc etc.The opera lasts 2.15h, so Major cuts have been instructed which is acceptable.All in all a different experience, glad we were there.
