Portland Opera Tickets

Portland Opera Concert Tickets

Feast your ears on a night at the opera, Oregon-style when you buy Portland Opera tickets at TicketSmarter. All things considered, the Portland Opera is one of the world’s newer opera companies despite the fact it was founded in 1964. The company was founded by a single man, conductor Henry Holt, who served as General Director for the opera’s first two years of existence. The inaugural Portland Opera season only featured one performance, which was Strauss’ Die Fledermaus. Over the years since its inception, the Portland Opera has not shied away from presenting new ideas. In fact, it was an early adopter of the practice of projecting translated lyrics above the stage to help audiences understand operas performed in other languages.

Portland Opera tickets may offer fans a gateway into another era just as easily as they might provide an opportunity to reflect on the times. As the company continues to perform opera classics by composers like Strauss and Mozart, it has had the distinction of hosting a number of notable world premieres. The Portland Opera hosted the West Coast premiere of William Bolcom’s A View From the Bridge, as well as the US premiere of Reynaldo Hahn’s Le merchand de Venise. Whether you’re going to see a classic or a new composition, you’re likely to witness the Portland Opera’s excellence in action.

Portland Opera Show Dates & Concert Schedule

The Portland Opera season usually takes place over the course of about nine months, often starting in November and ending in August of the following year.

One month may start with Mozart’s La Finta Giardiniera and end with American composer Phillip Glass’ In the Penal Colony.

When do Portland Opera tickets go on sale?

Portland Oregan opera tickets usually go on sale shortly after the company’s annual season is announced. This may take place nearly a year in advance of a performance. Even far in advance of a show, no presale code is needed to shop at TicketSmarter.

Portland Opera Seating Chart

Portland Opera events usually take place at either the large Keller Auditorium, which seats nearly 3,000 patrons or the smaller Newmark Theatre, which holds just under 900 guests. Both of these venues are part of Portland’s Center for the Arts and offer a number of seating section options. The Newmark Theatre seats guests across its orchestra, balcony box, first balcony and second balcony sections. Those looking for the best floor-level seats may want to be in rows P1 to J, as the first balcony overhangs the rear of the orchestra.

The much larger Keller Auditorium also features orchestra, box, first balcony and second balcony sections. If you desire a central view of the action, check out section C in the orchestra or either balcony, as that section is located in the middle of the venue. If you prefer box seats, boxes seven and eight offer similarly central views. For the ability to select and purchase your preferred seats, consult our interactive seating chart.
