Festival international d’opéra baroque de Beaune (Beaune International Baroque Opera Festival) transforms Beaune, France each July into a showcase for Baroque opera and early vocal music, celebrating the drama, devotion, and virtuosity of Europe’s classic repertoire. Catch staged rarities and star recitals by leading period ensembles in the Cour des Hospices and the Basilique Notre-Dame, where centuries-old acoustics heighten the thrill of Handel, Vivaldi, and French grands motets—then linger in the old town for a quintessential Burgundy summer night.
