Madrid's opera house, on the Plaza de Oriente, opens its halls, auditorium and stage house every morning for guided tours and with an audio guide.

The Teatro Real is Madrid's opera house, opposite the Royal Palace, between the Plaza de Oriente and the Plaza de Isabel II. Besides its season of opera, dance and concerts, it opens the building in the mornings for several paid tours, booked on its own online ticket office.

## Four ways to get in by day

There is a self-guided visit with an audio guide on your phone, in Spanish, English and French; a general guided tour of the halls, the foyer and the auditorium, lasting an hour and a quarter, with tours in the three languages; an artistic visit at 9:30; and a technical visit to the stage house at 10:00, only for over-10s. The reduced rate applies to over-65s, under-26s and large families. Tickets can also be bought in the lobby on visit days.

## What to know before you go

The theatre keeps working while it shows you around: rehearsals and set-ups can change the route or leave out the auditorium, and the guide announces it at the start. Punctuality is required: five minutes after the start time you can no longer enter and there is no refund, and tickets cannot be exchanged. The telephone is for information only, Monday to Friday from 11:00 to 13:00; groups of more than fifteen book with a form.
