Winner of the 2023 Offies one off special award.
Grimeborn is our yearly summer opera festival. Each year we bring together a daring new selection of opera, defying expectations with reworked classics, urgent new stories, and unexpected takes on the opera canon – all in an intimate, up-close setting.

“It’s a pleasure to be bringing audiences another serving of Grimeborn for the seventeenth year now. Grimeborn allows us to do that with programming from both classical and radical thought-provoking artists and companies from across the continent and some of the most affordable ticket prices in the UK.”- Mehmet Ergen (Artistic Director of Arcola), on the 2025 season
