What should I wear?
There's no dress code at OTSL, so you can leave your tuxedos and ballgowns at home! We hope you’ll come in whatever makes you comfortable. And if your biggest fear is showing up under- or over-dressed, most of our audiences tend to show up in “garden party” attire.

Picnic with Us!
You can pre-order picnics until 4 p.m. the day before your performance. Order online or call the Box Office to reserve your meal! Menus and order forms are available online here. Picnics are prepared by Ces & Judy's Catering and available for pick-up two hours prior to performance.

Free Opera Previews
One hour before each performance, join our music staff for a free 20-minute talk on the history and themes of the show you’re about to see! Our ushers and garden staff will be happy to direct you to the preview location.

Raise a Glass After the Opera
It’s an OTSL tradition to enjoy cocktails under the tent after each performance. Make plans to stay and enjoy a drink!
