Festival Season Tickets

"Des Moines Metro Opera continues working its magic, summer after summer, as it steadily turns itself into one of the nation’s premiere opera festivals." –Classical Voice North America (2026)

"Des Moines Metro Opera has become one of the country's most successful smaller companies doing adventurous repertory in a 467-seat space." –The New York Times (2025)

Experience world-class opera in one of the most unique theaters in the nation. Every seat in our 467-seat theater is closer to the center of the stage than the first row at the Metropolitan Opera, giving the audience a truly immersive theatrical experience. If you have never attended a DMMO production before, we hope you'll make this the year you discover us for the first time. To view the theatre seat map, click HERE.
