Bring Your Buds: Opera in the Park

We'll gather at Peninsula Park to watch the free outdoor performance of "Carmen," part of the Opera in the Park Portland series. Let's meet at 5:30pm, before the show starts. That will give us a little time to hang out together, and then we'll go pick our spot on the lawn.

We will meet under the large trees, just west of the gazebo. This is closest to the N Ainsworth and Albina intersection. Bring a blanket or short lawn chair. Cannabis friendly.

"OPERA IN THE PARK Portland, invites you to experience the magic of live opera in the heart of the city! On Sunday, July 27, 2025 at 6:00 PM, we return to the beautiful Peninsula Park for a free outdoor performance of Georges Bizet’s Carmen—one of the most passionate and enduring operas of all time.

Set on a grand stage in front of the park’s historic gazebo, this open-air concert features a star-studded cast, a full union orchestra and chorus, and the dazzling rhythms of flamenco brought to life by dancers from Espacio Flamenco. Nicholas Fox returns to conduct the concert. Come early, bring a blanket or lawn chair, and enjoy an unforgettable evening of music, drama, and community."
