Free community ticket program
Never been to the Opera before? No worries, your ticket is on us!
Opera Roanoke's FREE COMMUNITY TICKET PROGRAM gives everyone the opportunity to attend opera performances at no cost. Generously sponsored by Carilion Clinic, this new initiative gives everyone access to high-quality art, no matter their ability to pay. With a focus on low-income and underserved communities, and through partnerships with health and human service organizations, Opera Roanoke will provide free tickets to performances throughout the season.
Eligible performances in 2022-23 are Opera Gems: A Gala Celebration Concert on September 16, 2022 and Glory Denied: A New American Opera on February 24 & 26, 2023. Both of these performances are at the Jefferson Center.
Tickets through our free community ticket program must be reserved in advance by calling the box office at (540) 982-2742 or emailing boxoffice@operaroanoke.org.
