Family Sundays are a new regular event for families to come and explore the Royal Opera House, its artists and the world of opera and ballet.

- Informal performances from Royal Ballet dancers, Jette Parker Young Artists and Musicians
- Live make-up or stage combat demonstrations.
- Costume dressing up area.
- Design activities led by a professional set designer.

These activities run throughout the day from 12 – 4pm. Last entry to the event is at 3pm. A number of tickets are available to buy on the day.
Tickets are £5 for adults and £3 for children.
