For the beginning of the 2024/2025 season the CNT in Zagreb will hold two performances of the Gala Ballet Concert, with great ballet stars from all over the world, who will perform together with our artists. The Gala Ballet Concert is always a special holiday for ballet lovers because the most beautiful fragments of the classical repertoire are performed in one evening. Together with contemporary works and performed at the highest stylistic level of virtuosity, they offer a cross-section of the most significant pieces on today's ballet scene. These gala concerts are further steps in the positioning of the ballet ensemble in the European framework. The boards of the CNT become a home for world artists, introducing our dancers to the big family of world dance. With two performances of the gala concert, we will provide an unforgettable experience for many lovers of ballet art. Along with other guest dancers including Daniil Simkin and Maria Kochetkova, Roberto Bolle will perform, which further confirms the friendship and mutual respect between the great star and our Ballet.
