Guests will sleep in the Box of Honour, which has been transformed into a lavish red-and-gold-infused bedroom. As one of the venue’s most exclusive private viewing areas, the spot boasts sweeping views of the theatre’s stage and extravagant architecture.
The once-in-a-lifetime experience includes a tour of the Palais Garnier’s private dance studios and hidden areas, such as the famed underground lake. Guests will also enjoy a private ballet initiation, an exclusive recital performed by Paris Opera Academy artists, and a meal in the Foyer de la Danse – a historic dancing rehearsal room behind the stage.
In keeping with Airbnb’s commitment to heritage tourism, the booking site is supporting the restoration of the Palais Garnier’s boxes, as well as funding the theatre’s new streaming platform.
Costing €37 ($39.26) for the night – a nod to the Box of Honours number – theatre fans can attempt to secure the booking on March 1, with the stay taking place on July 16.
