Seebühne – Bregenz, Austria

If you’ve ever seen an opera or theater set floating on water and thought “that can’t possibly be real,” then you have to visit the Seebühne. The Seebühne, which means “floating stage” in German, is just one of five theaters used by the Bregenzer Festspiele, an annual festival of opera and theater held every July and August in Bregenz, Austria.

The Seebühne is used mostly for opera, and sits on a floating platform on Lake Constance. It can seat up to 7,000 spectators in the open-air amphitheater facing the water. The sets the artists have designed for this space have to be seen to be believed.
