Founded in 1985, Castleward Opera is like a Glyndebourne for Northern Ireland. The Castleward Opera Summer Season's production in 2008 is Mozart's Così fan tutti, which launched the opera company almost a quarter of a century ago.
Guests are expected to wear black tie and indulge in smart picnics from their hampers. In addition to this year's opera performances, there are Gala Nights featuring opera favourites from popular arias and choruses to orchestral pieces. These are performed by Castleward's chorus and orchestra together with international guest singers, including Ravil Atlas and Amanda Winfield.
