Just announced: Stanford University's Frost Amphitheater joins San Francisco Opera as a second location for the FREE live simulcast.
This fall, we're bringing opera to you in a big way. Join us for a FREE live simulcast of Verdi's classic opera Rigoletto in one of two locations: Civic Center Plaza in San Francisco and Frost Amphitheater at Stanford University, starting at 8 pm. It will be an unforgettable evening of opera under the stars for the whole family.

You'll be able to follow every bit of the action on screen with projected English subtitles.
If you have friends or family who would like to try opera for the first time, this free outdoor simulcast will be a perfect introduction. Our simulcast of Madama Butterfly last May brought a crowd of thousands to Civic Center Plaza, in what the San Francisco Chronicle called "an exciting evening for novices and aficionados alike." Don't miss out on this great opportunity to see opera under the stars, and to introduce your friends to opera in an unforgettable way.
