The Deutsche Oper Berlin is the opera house for all Berliners and captivates audiences far beyond Berlin’s borders – with a talented ensemble and world-renowned guest soloists, a multi-award-winning chorus, and an outstanding, world-class orchestra. It is Berlin’s most modern, largest and most-visited opera house. The further development of musical theatre and the promotion of outstanding young talent are just as much a part of its identity as a wide and varied programme for children and young people. The Förderkreis der Deutschen Oper Berlin (Friends of the Deutsche Oper Berlin) thank its members for their commitment with a variety of musical theatre experiences. The individual annual membership fees are listed below – for married couples and cohabiting partners, the partner is required to pay only half of the individual annual fee. We issue tax-deductible donation receipts for all donations and membership fees.
As an active member of the Förderkreis, you can support and contribute to the Deutsche Oper Berlin through financial and non-financial contributions. Through your membership, you can help fund the creation of unique productions and new works, as well as support the involvement of first-class young singers through scholarships. Funding for outstanding individual projects is also a regular feature of our agenda.
