The event was sponsored by the Ministries of Tourism and Culture, the Swiss Embassy, and the Zouk Mikael Municipality, coinciding with efforts to revive culture and arts in Lebanon and to elevate Beirut’s status as a global artistic destination. The festival aims to bring opera closer to the Lebanese audience, support local talents, foster international cultural exchange, and demonstrate that music, as a force, transcends borders and connects peoples despite the country's economic and social challenges.
