Opernstudio/Opéra Studio etc in Europe??

So I am about to finish grad school in December and am planning a trip to Europe for the spring to audition for various Yap/Opera studio/whatever you call them in Europe programs. I was wondering if any people on here know of any more that aren't listed on YAPtracker.... there especially seem to be a lack of listings in Italy/France/Spain. I'm sure they don't have as many as Germany but I'm sure there have got to be a couple not listed.

I know Bologna has one, but the auditions have come and gone... there have to be some more like training type programs (that you dont PAY for) in Italy right (particularly interested in Italy because I speak Italian.... and my German... nicht sehr gut... although I'll still sing for anyone!) ? And also France... more than just Paris and Strausborug? And NOTHING in Spain?

I can only get over there at the tail end of Jan/beginning of Feb and anytime after March. Any advice to more programs to look into and/or anything else that would be beneficial to sing for while I'm over there. I've been to Europe several times so I'm not worried about like particulars when I get there.... more like WHAT I should be singing for. Even summer type festivals that would have auditions in late winter early spring?? Or heck, even some awesome competition?

Want to sing for as much as I can while I'm there! Ideally I would love to be situated in Europe vs. some small American yap in BFE (although I'm singing for those too!!! haha).

Just hard to find out about the middle/smaller type houses and programs all the way across the pond you know? Just wondering if anyone could help me out!

Thanks so much!!
