The Opéra royal de Wallonie (French pronunciation: [ɔpeʁa ʁwajal də walɔni], lit. 'Royal Opera of Wallonia') is an opera house located on the Place de l'Opéra, in Liège, Belgium. Together with La Monnaie and the Vlaamse Opera, the Opéra royal, as it is colloquially known, is one of the three major opera houses in Belgium. From the beginning, the institution occupied the Théâtre royal in Liège, a building loaned by the city (inaugurated on 4 November 1820).
