View EventSince 1992, El Paso Opera has been part of El Paso’s cultural story, bringing beautiful music, powerful performances, and community-centered programs to the Borderland.
Built from local support and grown through artistic excellence, we continue to make opera accessible, inspiring, and deeply connected to our region.
Through inspiring performances, community programs, and educational initiatives, we connect audiences of all backgrounds with the power of live music and storytelling.
Great opera needs great support. Your donation helps El Paso Opera create high-quality performances, free community programs, and education opportunities for students and families across the region.
Opera is beautiful, powerful, and expensive to produce. Ticket sales cover less than 40% of the cost of a major production, so donations help make every performance possible. Your support helps pay artists, musicians, crew members, educators, and the many people who bring opera to life.
Help us produce professional opera experiences for El Paso and the surrounding region.
Support programs like #CurbsideOpera that bring live music directly into neighborhoods, parks, schools, and community spaces.
Help students experience opera through Youth Night at the Opera, school programs, teaching artists, and behind-the-scenes learning opportunities.
Your gift supports the performers, musicians, creative teams, and production professionals who make each season possible.
Opera belongs to everyone. Our mission is to bring powerful stories, extraordinary music, and unforgettable performances to the entire El Paso community.
Opera is for everyone. Some guests enjoy dressing up, while others come in casual attire. Wear whatever makes you comfortable.
Most performances last between 90 minutes and two hours depending on the production.
Some productions are performed in their original language, with projected translations so everyone can follow the story.
Tickets can be purchased online through our ticket portal. Seating is limited, so we recommend reserving early.
