Opera in Los Angeles in 2026 promises a spectacular season — with world‑class productions, concerts, and community performances presented across major venues such as LA Opera at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion and more experimental works under its “Off Grand” and outreach series. Highlights include beloved classics like La Bohème, The Magic Flute, Falstaff, and the bold staging of Akhnaten, along with gala concerts and recitals by major artists. There are also family‑friendly and community‑oriented experiences — from free “simulcast” screenings under the stars to interactive opera performances for children — ensuring that opera in L.A. remains accessible and engaging for both longtime enthusiasts and newcomers. Whether you’re seeking grand evening performances or accessible, community‑driven events, 2026 offers a robust, diverse, and inviting opera calendar with tickets now on sale.
