‘ Aida’ comes home

-

For the first time after a long wait, opera “Aida” is returning to her homeland, where the story first began, at the Great Pyramids of Giza. Being one of the oldest true love stories in human history, Aida is one of the most favoured operas held in Egypt. Its history features a sequence of phenomenal shows and events honouring the art of opera and composers. The story of the opera was found on papyrus, rewritten by French Egyptologi­st Auguste Mariette, with its music created by Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi.

Aida will be a message of peace and love for the whole world. Egypt will come back once again and restore its previous glory, beauty, and prosperity. As civilisati­ons in the past cooperated to create Aida, we encourage more collaborat­ion between cultures, as when this occurs, masterpiec­es like Aida are born.

This event will take place at the Sound and Light show in front of the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx on 8 and 9 March 2018 from 7: 00 to 11: 00 pm.

Due to the magnitude of this event, it will be supported by several government­al entities with the purpose of enhancing tourism and capturing an accurate image of Egypt.

The entities will be as follows: Ministry of Tourism Ministry of Culture Ministry of Antiquitie­s
