Description

Step into the Metropolitan Opera House, the crown jewel of Lincoln Center and one of the most iconic performance venues in the world. With seating for nearly 3,800 guests beneath dazzling Austrian crystal chandeliers, the Met is the largest repertory opera house on the planet, staging a rotating lineup of world-class productions night after night.

For over 140 years, the Met has been a cornerstone of New York's cultural life, drawing opera lovers and curious first-timers alike from around the globe. A visit here is as much a landmark New York experience as seeing a Broadway show or standing atop the Empire State Building, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and artistry that have made it a must-see stop for travelers.

The 2026-27 season brings 17 extraordinary productions to the Met stage, from bold new stagings to timeless classics, offering something for every visitor. The season opens with a searing new production of Verdi's Macbeth, followed by the world premiere of Missy Mazzoli's Lincoln in the Bardo and a gripping new staging of Puccini's La Fanciulla del West. Other highlights include the Met premiere of Silent Night, Janáček's Jenůfa, and Saint-Saëns' Samson et Dalila, alongside classic revivals of Così fan tutte, Aida, Otello, La Bohème, Tosca, Manon, Der Rosenkavalier, Parsifal, Medea, and Maria Stuarda. Families visiting during the holidays won't want to miss The Magic Flute, Julie Taymor's dazzling, puppet-filled staging of Mozart's beloved fairy tale.
