WHY SUPPORT US?Opera is unique because it combines vocal and instrumental music, text and theatre, as well as visual aspects of all kinds... It creates an atmosphere in which all our senses are intensely called upon. This is why opera has such emotional power and makes its audience feel alive.
Opera tells stories that echo our contemporary predicaments. The artists who give voice to these stories are the mirrors of our society. Opera gives us the opportunity to experience our common humanity beyond all our cultural differences. The Festival d’Aix is committed to promoting this cross-cultural dimension.
its mission is to keep opera lively,
by fostering opera creation and professional integration of young artists,
by making opera more accessible,
by encouraging the circulation of works and young artists.
In 2013 the Festival was appointed European Cultural Ambassador and it was awarded the prize for Best Festival at the 2014 International Opera Awards. With these prestigious distinctions, the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence is ever more committed to its mission.
For several years now the support from corporate and individual sponsors has been key to the Festival’s success, as it represents 17% of its budget.In order to continue and pursue its projects, the Festival needs to increase significantly the proportion of this self-financing.
Our ambitious projects cannot be brought to fruition without the contributions of our Major Donors. The Festival invites sponsors to support specific projects to which their names will be attached. You can participate in one of the Festival’s great projects by giving your invaluable support.
