L'Òpera de Montecarlo és un teatre d'òpera, que forma part del Casino de Montecarlo del Principat de Mònaco.
A causa de la manca de diversions culturals en la Mònaco dels anys 1870, el príncep Carles III de Mònaco, amb el suport de la Société des bains de mer de Mònaco, va decidir crear una sala de concerts que formés part del casino. L'entrada pública principal a la sala es feia pel casino, mentre que l'entrada privada de Carles III era al costat occidental. Va obrir portes l'any 1879 i va ser aviat coneguda com a Sala Garnier, pel nom de l'arquitecte que la va dissenyar, Charles Garnier.
Durant la renovació de la Sala Garnier dels anys 2004–05, l'empresa va presentar òperes a la Sala dels Prínceps del Fòrum Grimaldi, un espai modern per a conferències i altres serveis, on Els Ballets de Montecarlo i l'Orquestra Filharmònica de Montecarlo actuen regularment.
L'arquitecte Charles Garnier va dissenyar també el teatre d'òpera de París, ara coneguda amb el nom d'Òpera Garnier. La Sala Garnier és molt més petita, compta amb 524 places, poc comparat amb les aproximadament 2.000 de l'Òpera Garnier, i a diferència del teatre de París, el qual es va començar a construir el 1861 i completat el 1875, la Sala Garnier va ser construïda en només vuit mesos i mig. No obstant això, el seu l'estil ornamental va estar fortament influït pel de l'Òpera Garnier, i molts artistes van treballar en ambdós teatres. Tot i que el teatre de Montecarlo no va ser projectat com a teatre d'òpera, aviat va ser utilitzat per aquell propòsit, i amb freqüència, per la qual cosa va ser remodelat entre 1898 i 1899 per Henri Schmit, principalment pel que fa a l'escenari, per fer-lo més adequat per l'òpera.
La sala va ser inaugurada el 25 de gener de 1879 amb una actuació de Sarah Bernhardt vestida com una nimfa. La primera òpera en ser representada va ser Le Chevalier Gaston, de Robert Planquette, el 8 de febrer de 1879, seguida de tres òperes més en aquella mateixa temporada.

The exciting new opera house is located right on the waters of the Oslofjord; it was constructed between 2003 and 2007 and formally opened in 2008. It was designed by the Oslo architecture firm Snøhetta AS.
It has quickly become Oslo's most iconic building. The most intriguing aspect of its design is its roof construction. If reaches from the top of the building all the way to the waters of the Oslofjord. People can walk on the entire roof, and on a sunny day many locals lie on the sloped roof and work on a sun tan.
[...] An opera begins long before the curtain goes up and ends long after it has come down. It starts in my imagination, it becomes my life, and it stays part of my life long after I've left the opera house [...]
-- Quote by Maria Callas (American Soprano. 1923-1977)

Pitigliano, Italy (July, 2011)
Celebrating our beautiful city with our annual festival of light, music and ideas. The centerpiece of Vivid Sydney is the light sculptures, multimedia interactive work and building projections that transform various buildings and landmarks around the city.
Oslo, Norway. During the first year after the opening (April 2008), the Oslo Opera House has become a magnet both for local residents and for tourists. Taking a walk on the white building by the sea has been a must for people visting Oslo. Hundreds of thousands have walked on the white marble.
In this capture, opera tourists are seen on the opera's roof (I'm quite sure I read that the roof was closed for the winter in November, but...) on the second last day of 2008. They're being watched by a large flock of seagulls on the ice covered sea outside the opera. And the light - winter sunset.
