The Deutsche Oper Berlin is the opera house for all Berliners and its allure extends far beyond the city itself. The opera boasts an impressive ensemble, world-famous guest soloists, a multiple-award-winning chorus and an outstanding orchestra of international repute. It is the largest, most modern and most highly frequented opera house in Berlin. Its guiding principles include fostering the evolution of musical theatre, promoting exceptional young talent and maintaining a broad range of options for children and teenagers.

The Society of Friends and Patrons of the Deutsche Oper Berlin offers its members a wealth of musical-theatre experiences as an expression of gratitude for their generosity. The annual membership fees are set out below. For married couples and people in civil partnerships the respective partner need only pay half of the annual fee. We issue receipts for tax-deduction purposes for all donations and membership fees.
