Opera on the Mountain

Pack your picnic basket, choose your favorite bottle of bubbly, and join us for a perfect evening of song and sky-gazing on our covered back patio. Relax with friends and family as Nashville Opera artists perform memorable opera and musical-theatre favorites. After the last "Bravo!" you will have the opportunity to gaze at the cosmos through Dyer's grand telescope. A perennial family-friendly favorite, Opera on the Mountain sells out every year!
