A place worth knowing
The 2026 opening programme makes this a venue to follow for large vocal and theatrical productions. Check the exact performance and auditorium when booking, and plan transport to Pudong rather than heading automatically to People’s Square. Shanghai Grand Opera House and Shanghai Grand Theatre are separate venues. The event page carries the confirmed date and ticket information for each production.
