Fully accessible performances

GNO Learning & Participation Lead Donor 

Sponsor of All Together At the Opera

The pro accessibility event cycle All Together At The Opera, made possible by the ongoing support of Alpha Bank as part of its corporate responsibility initiative “Culture For All," has now become an integral part of the GNO Learning & Participation Department’s programming. In the new season, the programme that has already been embraced by audiences, affirming that art belongs to everyone, brings an original musical workshop titled We Enter Fairy Tales Through Notes And Play!, specially designed for mixed groups of children with or without Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Furthermore, it continues to provide fully accessible performances for another year in the Stavros Niarchos Hall and the Alternative Stage at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC).

Aiming to ensure an unobstructed viewing and listening experience for all, the Greek National Opera, in collaboration with Alpha Bank, continues to present selected performances that are fully accessible at both the Stavros Niarchos Hall and the Alternative Stage.

In these selected performances, there will be designated seats for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing and use Greek Sign Language, places for those who rely on captions (CAPS) covering the entire audio channel, as well as seats for individuals who are blind or have limited access to the visual channel of communication and will be able to use the audio description (AD)service.  Guide dogs for the visually impaired are also permitted.
