Young Friends at the Opera
Crafting the perfect outing is an art. Consider this a masterpiece!
Savor a pre-show buffet, sip from an open bar, hang with friends, and meet other young professionals — all for one affordable price — before basking in great music and theater!
Young Friends at the Opera is an all-inclusive arts experience built around a vibrant community of arts lovers age 45 and under. After arriving in our beautiful gardens, you’ll find a dedicated tent area just for Young Friends. Mingle with your pals, romance your date, or network with other young professionals. When it comes to pre-show festivities, we’ve got you covered with a delicious buffet, community tables, and an open bar! Curious to learn more about the show? As you eat, an OTSL team member will give you an exclusive behind-the-scenes scoop on the opera you’re about to see.
Young Friends tickets start at $65 per event, or save $10 off every ticket by bundling two or more shows with a Young Friends Pass!
