At the Milan Scala Opera Museum

Milan’s Scala is a worldwide renowned Opera House with a remarkably impressive history. If you can’t afford a seat for an Event, tip: they are often less expensive than you might imagine, or your schedule in Milan doesn’t allow you to visit a full hour-long concert, there is a good option for you. A good alternative to discover more about Teatro alla Scala Milano’s history and wander the same paths celebrities and reigning personalities have already walked on. The alternative is a visit to the Milan Opera Museum, located inside the Opera house Teatro alla Scala. It’s not too far from Duomo di Milano and next to Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, right in the centre of the City.

In short: the Museo Teatrale alla Scala inside Teatro alla Scala in Milan is a good alternative to a full opera. It is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10 am, tickets cost 9 euros, and you should plan 1 to 1.5 hours.
