The Grand Theatre and Opera House of Dijon

With its demanding schedule and innovative artistic decisions, the Opéra de Dijon has taken its place among the greats in the world of French opera. This relentless search for excellence has been recognized and supported by the label "Théâtre Lyrique d’Intérêt national" (operatic theater of national interest), which has enabled the Opéra de Dijon to pursue and expand its policy of creations and residencies, innovation and partnerships, artistic and cultural education, and opening its door to all audiences.

The title "Théâtre lyrique d’intérêt national" was granted by the French state in recognition of the cultural work, knowledge, and excellence of the Opéra de Dijon, which contributes to the cultural reputation of Dijon and its region in France and in Europe.
