James Clutton, Chief Executive and Director of Opera at Opera Holland Park, says: “I am delighted to welcome the Notting Hill Carnival to Opera Holland Park. At a time when all arts companies need to think creatively and imaginatively, and to work more closely in partnerships, it is great to have our friends and neighbours taking a short residency in the creative hub that is Opera Holland Park.”
Matthew Phillip, Chief Executive of Notting Hill Carnival Ltd, says: “We're delighted to be working with Opera Holland Park to bring together two great musical cultures and create these amazing shows. Each night will bring something different and unique that will allow the audience to experience the music they love as they have never heard it before."
