Maia Symphonic
There are melodies that lodge themselves in our imagination without asking permission. Some because they are a regular feature at concerts, others because advertising and cinema have adopted them – and then there are those we whistle by heart without knowing where they came from. Many were born in opera before taking on a life of their own. From Verdi’s tragic fate to the drama of Wagner’s cursed sailor, from the lightheartedness of Viennese operetta to the elegance of French ballet, Orquestra Sinfónica do Porto Casa da Música invites the city of Maia on a journey through the 19th and early 20th centuries, through pieces that have become popular far beyond the opera stage.

Do I need to print the tickets purchased online? No. After making a purchase on our website, you will receive an email with your tickets attached, which you can either print or present at the entrance of the Hall.
Purchase of discounted tickets. For holders of discounted tickets, it is mandatory to present proof of eligibility at the entrance of the Hall. Failure to present such proof may prevent access to the show.
Can I take photos or record the concert? No. You may take non-flash photos inside the hall only until the concert begins, after which no sound or image recording is allowed.
Can I leave and re-enter during a concert? Yes. If you need to leave the hall during the concert, you can only re-enter, following the guidance of the hall assistants, between movements or at the end of a piece. You may have to occupy a seat that does not correspond to the one on your ticket.
Can I use my mobile phone or tablet during a concert? No. The use of mobile phones or tablets inside the hall (even in silent mode) is highly disruptive to the concentration of the audience and musicians due to the light emitted from the screens.
I can’t attend a concert; can I exchange my ticket? It is not possible to exchange or refund tickets, so please check your tickets at the time of purchase.
