Stockholm's theater and opera season runs from September through May. Both Dramaten (the National Theater) and Operan (the Royal Opera) shut down in the summer months. When it comes to popular music, big-name international acts frequently come to Stockholm in summer while on their European tours. Artists of this type always play at one of the Stockholm Globe Arenas south of the city center.
The Stockholm Visitors Board website www.visitstockholm.com) lists the month's events in both English and Swedish.
In the off-season, the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra plays weekly concerts at this large concert hall, which is also home to the highly regarded Swedish Radio Choir.
When it comes to high-quality international dance in Stockholm, there's really only one place to go. Dansens Hus hosts the best Swedish and international acts, with shows ranging from traditional Japanese dance to street dance and modern ballet. You can also see ballet at the Royal Opera house.
The home of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, the city's main concert hall also hosts other Swedish and international classical music performances.
One of Stockholm's artistic and literary waterholes since the first Operakällaren restaurant opened on the site in 1787, the Royal Opera House is almost more famous for its restaurants and bars than for its opera and ballet productions. But that doesn't mean an evening performance should be missed. The current baroque building dates from 1898, replacing an earlier opera house where, in 1792, King Gustav III was assassinated at a masquerade ball (the inspiration for Verdi's opera A Masked Ball). There's not a bad seat in the house. For about SKr 110 you can even get a listening-only seat (with no view). Guided tours of the opera house are offered on Saturdays at 1 pm (more frequently in summer).
