Join thousands of opera lovers as the Metropolitan Opera returns to the parks of New York City and New Jersey. A summertime tradition in New York since 1967 and in New Jersey since 1987, the series opens with back-to-back concerts in Central Park on June 12 and 13, with six additional performances in each borough of the city and two locations in New Jersey. Experience opera in an accessible and informal outdoor setting. This year's series presents Puccini’s La Bohème, a timeless story of love among young artists in Paris, and Gounod’s Faust, an epic drama about an aged philosopher’s pact with the devil.
All performances are at 8:00 pm, FREE, and no tickets are required.
