Mark your calendars and plan to join us!

The Santa Fe Opera Festival
August 14-17, 2012

OPERA America Ambassadors will once again return to beautiful Santa Fe and the acclaimed Santa Fe Opera — one of America’s favorite opera festivals. In addition to sightseeing, museum visits and lunches and dinners in some of Santa Fe’s best restaurants, we will see three operas: Maometto II (Rossini), King Roger (Szymanowski) and Arabella (R. Strauss).

An Opera Week in Berlin
June 4-10, 2013

OPERA America Ambassadors will travel to one of Europe’s most talked-about cities for a six day stay. Performances by the Staatsoper and the Komischer Oper will be included in the itinerary along with visits to some of Berlin’s extraordinary museums (including the Pergamon Museum!), exciting restaurants and other specially arranged activities. Berlin, whether on its own or combined with another European stop, is an unforgettable must-see city.



OPERA America’s Ambassador trips are becoming more and more popular for opera trustees and fans from opera companies of all sizes. Plan to join OPERA America in Santa Fe and in Berlin! (Our travel partner can assist with trip extension arrangements before or after Berlin.)
