Coming back to Boise in 2027!
After five wonderful summers at the Gene Harris Bandshell in Julia Davis Park, Opera in the Park will take a brief hiatus in 2026 as we focus on building a strong and sustainable future for this beloved community tradition.
Thanks to the incredible support of our audiences, donors, and volunteers, Opera Idaho has proudly offered this free, family friendly concert to the Treasure Valley for five consecutive years. Our goal is to ensure Opera in the Park remains accessible, vibrant, and free for families for many seasons to come.
We look forward to welcoming the community back in 2027… and you can help make it happen. Support the future of Opera in the Park by making a contribution or volunteering with our Special Events Committee.
Join us for the 2026-2027 season!
Our 2026–2027 season, Unraveled, explores what happens when the structures we rely on most are pushed to their limits. Across three productions, passions intensify, carefully held beliefs begin to shift, and the boundaries between performance and reality grow unexpectedly thin. Some unravelings happen in a flash. Others emerge slowly, almost imperceptibly. Each reveals something deeply human.

Opera is for everyone
We strive to create welcoming live opera experiences that inspire and connect communities across Idaho. We believe great music and powerful storytelling belong to everyone, whether it’s your first performance or a lifelong tradition.
From fully staged productions and concerts to children’s choruses, education programs, and community events across the state, we bring opera to thousands of people each year, opening doors, sparking curiosity, and inviting new audiences to feel at home.
