About Opera Austin Festival

After a successful inaugural Opera Austin Festival that culminated in a “Best New Venture of 2024” award, we have just announced November 15th 2025 as the official date of our second year for the festival. Opera Austin Festival: a celebration of newly written opera in Central Texas. This one-night festival of local and regional opera organizations, composers and singers showcases compelling performances of works written by living composers with the intention to create a festival highlighting the collaborative and innovative spirit that thrives in Central Texas.
