There is simply no better place to be in Ireland in October than Wexford, when the town becomes a hive of cultural activity to celebrate the annual Wexford Festival Opera. Now in its 72nd year, Wexford Festival Opera continues to amaze and delight in equal measure, when operatic performers from all over the world convene at the National Opera House for two weeks of world-class opera.
The local community has always taken pride of place when it comes to Wexford Festival Opera, and this year that relationship is going a step further with the staging of a community opera project.
