Touring
The mission of San Francisco Ballet is to share the joy of dance with the widest possible audience. The Company tours frequently, with engagements at prestigious venues such as the famed Opéra de Paris-Palais Garnier in Paris; London’s Sadler’s Wells Theatre and the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden; Athens’ Megaron Theatre; Scotland's Edinburgh International Festival; and Les étes de la danse de Paris, an outdoor dance festival held in the Marais district of Paris.
