We're just one week away from the big reveal...
LA Opera is honored to be a place where you can immerse yourself in the transformative and healing power of music. It is in this spirit that we've crafted our 40th Anniversary Season with an eye on both our history and our future.
You're invited to join us online on Tuesday, February 11 at 7:00pm as we reveal our historic 2025/2026 Season, which also marks Maestro James Conlon's final season as Music Director, capping off a transformative 20-year tenure.
