Royal Opera House Muscat (ROHM) today announces its 2026-2027 15th Anniversary Season, celebrating a landmark chapter in its journey as Oman’s flagship performing arts institution and the first opera house in the GCC. With 28 unique shows across 43 performance nights from October 2026 to May 2027, the new season opens with Verdi’s Rigoletto, and spans opera, Arab music, concerts, ballet, jazz, world music and family shows, as well as an anniversary exhibition, and an extensive Education and Community Outreach programme.
Since opening its doors, the Royal Opera House Muscat has remained guided by a visionary mission to bridge cultures, foster international dialogue and contribute to the development of the performing arts in Oman and beyond.
Over fifteen years, the Royal Opera House Muscat has evolved from a landmark cultural institution into an internationally respected producing house, combining artistic stewardship with cultural diplomacy and creative exchange. Its journey has extended beyond presenting acclaimed international artists and companies to commissioning and producing original work, championing Omani heritage, nurturing local talent and creating meaningful opportunities for audiences and communities to engage with the performing arts.
The anniversary season reflects this evolution, featuring acclaimed ROHM productions, international artists and companies, original commissions, Arab and Omani music, exhibitions, education and community initiatives. Together, these programmes celebrate fifteen years of artistic achievement while reaffirming the institution's commitment to cultural exchange, artistic excellence and inspiring future generations.
