A production of the Mozart opera Don Giovanni at the Theatre de l"Archeveche will get the programme underway in earnest on 1 July, followed by Gluck"s Alceste the next evening.

Both shows will be staged several times before the festival comes to an end on 21 July.

There will also be performances of the ballet Pygmalion, concerts by the London Symphony Orchestra and other events.

Travellers can reach the Provence region of France by taking flights to Marseille or Nice, which are available with British Airways, easyJet, Air France and other carriers.
