Tallinn has a year-long, bustling arts scene, with everything from small-scale alternative creations right through to grand opera performances and classical music recitals. Many performances are only in Estonian as the country celebrates the return of the local language after decades of Soviet-era suppression. Check out
Tallinn in Your Pocket, a bi-monthly guide to the city, for details of major events. The tourist office can also often help with information and bookings, but there is no last minute ticketing agency as such.
Main cultural venues in the city include
the
Estonian National Opera, Estonia 4 (tel: 683 1260; website:
www.opera.ee), which is housed in the same building as the
Estonian Concert Hall (tel: 614 7760; website:
www.concert.ee). The massive concrete
Linnahall, Mere 20 (tel: 641 1600; website:
www.linnahall.ee), and the
Estonian Drama Theater, Parnu 5 (tel: 680 5555; website:
www.draamateater.ee) are also worth checking out. An alternative venue is the
Von Krahl Theater, Rataskaevu 10 (tel: 626 9090; website:
www.vonkrahl.ee), a favorite of the local student community.
