Moscow Classical Ballet Show in Lisbon

James Carter

Two weekends ago, I decided to treat my family to something extra special. I took them to see the Moscow Classical Ballet in Lisbon. My 5 year old daughter loves ballet and couldn’t wait to see the real thing! Events like this one, are a regular occurance in Lisbon and with it only taking just over 2 hours by car from the Algarve, it is no problem to pop up for a show or even to stay overnight and make a weekend from it like we did.

The show took place in the Coliseu dos Recreios, which is centrally located near Avenida Liberdade. We stayed at the Eurostars das Letras, a charming new hotel, which is only 2 minutes away from the venue by taxi.

The performance by the Moscow Classical Ballet was excellent and my daughter thoroughly enjoyed her first live ballet performance. Following the show, we headed to the Hard Rock cafe for dinner and soaked up the atmosphere before heading back to the hotel.

Certainly a great opportunity to get away for the weekend and experience something different!
