You're Invited!
Before the curtain rises on San Francisco Opera's 2026–2027 season, you're invited to experience what few ever do: a glimpse behind the curtain...!
For one night only, the Horn Lounge & Bar, tucked beneath the Herbst Theater, will be transformed into an intimate arts speakeasy where the season will come to life through conversation, cocktails, and insights into an exciting line-up of performances ahead.
