Welcome to our new and improved shop
If you’re looking for opera-themed gifts and souvenirs, welcome to the Opera Shop in the Alfons Lobby, by the Töölönlahti bay entrance. The Opera Shop is open from Monday to Friday from 2 to 7 p.m., on Saturdays from 2 to 6 p.m. and at performance times. Come in and discover our exciting new selection!
Seasonal theme products: Ring and Triple Bill
The Opera Shop has a fascinating range of opera and ballet related products, which are not available anywhere else. The selection is renewed every season. In 2019 we’re offering a small number of limited edition Triple Bill hoodies, the same style our dancers wear too. The much-awaited Ring cycle is also featured at the Opera Shop, with a selection of stylish T-shirts and canvas shopping bags with the Ring logo.
Postcards and stamps
It is never a bad idea to remember a friend by sending a postcard. Or adding to your own postcard collection. The extensive selection in the Opera Shop contains postcards from various eras, featuring the Opera House and opera and ballet productions. A postcard can be made a little bit more special with the addition of a rare FNO 100th anniversary stamp.
Tutus and pumps
A real fan will want to obtain a tutu made in the FNO costume workshop, a pair of ballet pumps with dancers’ autographs or a unique bag made of old outdoor posters. The selection of products may vary depending on availability.
Books and programme booklets
You need never leave it to the night of the performance to buy a programme booklet; you can get it at the Opera Shop whenever you like. The shop also carries a selection of books on opera and ballet. We particularly recommend the books published for the 100th anniversary of the Opera and the 90th anniversary of the ballet.
Recordings galore
Passionate opera fans will find a collection of DVD and CD recordings of opera music from around the world at the Opera Shop. These include Finnish opera themed recordings from recent years, too. Get yours quickly, as stock is running out fast!
