Siegfried Opera Tickets
Experience a Wagner classic with Siegfried tickets. The opera Siegfried is the third opera in Der Ring des Nibelungen or The Ring Cycle. The piece premiered on August 16, 1876, in Bayreuth, Germany, at the Bayreuth Festspielhaus.
The opera takes place in three acts, broken up into three scenes each. The libretto, or dialogue and story, was completed by 1852. Wagner had finished a draft by 1857 of the piece but put it aside to work on other operas. He took up the piece again in 1869 and he started the final revision in February of 1871.
Feel the drama and power of the Ring Cycle with Siegfried tickets. The story starts at a rocky cave in the forest. As the curtain rises, a dwarf is forging a sword. As he finishes, Siegfried arrives with a wild bear. Siegfried breaks the sword quickly and the dwarf immediately starts to whine and lecture how ungrateful Sigfried is as the dwarf has practically raised him.
Siegfried asks about his parents and the Mime, and the dwarf explains how he met Siegfried’s mother, who had died birthing Siegfried. He then shows the broken sword Nothung to Siegfried, who orders the dwarf to reforge it. Mime is unable to, and Siegfried leaves, and Mime is left despondent.
Siegfried’s story continues as Nothung is reforged and his travels and battles afterward as he confronts Father, a dragon, Brunhilde, a sleeping beauty, and the Wanderer, who is Wotan has captivated audiences for over a hundred years.

What are the best seats to see Siegfried live?
Opera seating choices rely on both financial capabilities and personal viewing preferences. Audience members should choose mid-to-front rows in the center orchestra for the ideal sound and view combination but those who want a grand panoramic perspective should opt for seats in the front mezzanine or balcony. People should choose seats in the middle orchestra or mezzanine for the best acoustic experience because opera houses have sound systems that transmit sound efficiently to these areas. The rear orchestra and balcony sections offer affordable seating choices at the expense of slightly reduced sound quality.
