The 61th edition of the Macerata Opera Festival will be held at the Arena Sferisterio from 18 July to 10 August, 2025, opening with La vedova allegra by Franz Lehár, never performed before in this venue (shows will be on 18 and 27 July, 2 and 9 August). A symbol of the historic and artistic change between the Nineteenth and Twentieth century, this work will be presented in a brand new production, along with two masterpieces by Giuseppe Verdi, i.e. Rigoletto (19 and 25 July, 3 and 8 August) and Macbeth (26 July, 1, 7 and 10 August), revamped in the form of two, widely appraised Sferisterio productions signed by Federico Grazzini and Emma Dante.
Performances are scheduled to allow audiences to watch different shows over each weekend. Besides the three operas, the programme features one dance performance (30 July) and two concerts (31 July and 6 August), so that opera and music lovers coming from outside the region may stay longer.

È tutta colpa del muro, con quelle titaniche dimensioni, diciotto di altezza e novanta di lunghezza: metri, si intende. Se non lo sfidi hai già perso, allo Sferisterio di Macerata. Ma un muro genera idee, e dunque forse è anche merito suo se il MOF si conferma come il più innovativo tra i nostri cartelloni estivi.

Allora “Si può fare!”, come strillava Gene Wilder in “Frankenstein Junior”. S’intende l’opera all’aperto senza cadere nella solita modalità turistico-kolossal-che ci frega tanto l’importante sono le voci. Prendete lo Sferisterio di Macerata. Meraviglioso stadio per il gioco del pallone di Leopardi, con i suoi palchi neoclassici e un soffitto di stelle, da un paio di gestioni a qui offre cartelloni importanti e stimolanti, insomma pensati, con tutto un contorno di incontri, feste, iniziative, notti bianche e chiassi vari che riescono a coinvolgere il pubblico locale e a fidelizzare quello d’importazione. Risultato: il MOF, Macerata Opera Festival, è diventato uno di quelli da non perdere.
