When living in Moscow (and even not), this is a must go. At least one time. The building is an incredible beauty and has a unique grandeur (величие). Don’t let high prices and the necessity to buy tickets long in advance (заранее) scare you. Your experience will be worth it!
The original “historic stage” is the most popular and attractive one. To get tickets to the ballets at the best price we advise you to buy them only from the official Bolshoi Theater page. The sales starts 3 months in advance. Of course, stalls (партер) and amphitheater seats will be the best options, but consider also the first rows on dress circle (бельэтаж), first gallery circle or second gallery circle. We recommend you to select seats located as much in the center in front of the stage as possible.
The new stage in a separate neighboring building might not have the same beauty and charm as the historic stage, but it still offers wonderful opera and ballet productions. And they are reasonably priced! So, prepare your visit to Bolshoi Theater well in advance to find an option which you can afford and enjoy!
