Van Smartlap tot Opera

A (singalong) feast of recognition for young and old!

Orkestvereniging Wilton, Plengers - Hoekse Tranentrekkers & Rotterdams Operakoor (NL)

The 15th edition of Van Smartlap tot Opera on Koeweide as per the tradition. An event with a mix of songs from famous operas, alternating with tearjerkers and performed by around 150 participants. And presented by none other than Dave van der Wal.

An extraordinary singalong spectacle that draws some 1500 to 2000 visitors every time. From ‘Ketelbinkie’ (‘The Urchin from Rotterdam’) to ‘Bella Italia’; from ‘Mama Mia’ to ‘the Barber of Seville”. Come and watch, listen, but above all, sing along and bring your picnic blanket!

“Every year, this is a much-loved event where well-known arias go hand in hand with popular Rotterdam songs. Sing along at the top of your lungs!” – Guy Coolen, artistic director O.
