About English National Opera

Man and lady singing

Europe's leading opera house

English National Opera is one of Europe's leading opera houses.  Based at London's largest theatre, the London Coliseum, the company is renowned for its accessible performances of the most iconic operas.

The Company is also known for looking to forge new links between the world of opera and other art-forms with collaborations like Oscar-winning director Anthony Minghella's award-winning and visually ravishing production of Madam Butterfly which was first performed in 2005 and returned to the London Coliseum in January 2008.

ENO's opera season runs from September until July, and each year the Company performs on average 16 large-scale productions a year many of which are premieres.

On the 20th May 2008 Sky and ENO launched Sky Seats Extra - the UK's largest discounted ticket scheme for opera.  To find out more visit the Partnership Benefits section.
