Visit Eastern & Central
Europe and Russia
during the
Cultural Season..
The
Cultural Season brings fewer crowds at the famous museums and palaces
from Prague to St. Petersburg, reduced hotel and airfare rates, and
most importantly, the best performances at some of the top theaters
such as the Mariinsky Theater and the Budapest Opera House.
Unfortunately,
many of the theaters for the leading ballet companies and opera houses
are dark during the summer months. If you are a ballet, symphony,
or opera enthusiast, we encourage you to visit Eastern Europe &
Russia during the cultural season, which lasts from late September to
early June. Don’t miss the opportunity to see the Mariinsky
(Kirov) Ballet perform Swan Lake on the main stage.
