LA Opera Presents Free Live Simulcast Of AIDA In Three Locations

Back by popular demand, LA Opera will resume its annual live simulcasts at three locations this year. At 7:30pm on Saturday, June 4, 2022, LA Opera's production of Giuseppe Verdi's Aida will be transmitted live in high-definition video from nine cameras at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion to large LED screens at Newhall Park in Santa Clarita, the Pomona Fairplex and the Santa Monica Pier.

The performance stars soprano Latonia Moore and tenor Russell Thomas and will be conducted by James Conlon.

Through the generous support of Los Angeles County and Supervisor Sheila Kuehl, LA Opera is able to present these simulcasts free of charge as a special gift to the community.

Aida will mark the sixth simulcast to the Santa Monica Pier; this will be the first time that Opera in the Park will be experienced by audiences in Pomona and Santa Clarita. Since Aida is performed in Italian, the simulcasts will feature subtitles in both English and Spanish.

Although no tickets are required for entrance, guests are encouraged to sign up in advance at LAOpera.org/OperaInThePark, LAOpera.org/OperaAtTheFairplex or LAOpera.org/OperaAtTheBeach to get important information about parking and the latest updates.

Seating at all three locations is general admission, and doors will open at 4pm. Attendees are advised to bring their own seating and to arrive early both for pre-performance picnicking and to secure the best viewing areas.
