Met Opera in HD
The Strand presents the Met Opera 2021-22 Season!
The Met’s award-winning Live in HD series brings opera to movie theaters across the globe via live cinema transmissions and encore broadcasts.
Given the Met's delayed release of live performance dates (typically we know a year in advance), there are a few dates that conflict with other events we have already scheduled -- which means that a couple opera broadcasts can be offered as encores only.
In response to the evolving local conditions with Covid-19 transmission rates, our current safety measures include setting the auditorium capacity at 30%, or 100 seats per show; providing reserved seating with a buffer of empty seats around each party (please be aware that those who wish to sit together will need to order their tickets together); and requiring all patrons and staff to wear masks for the duration of their stay. These protocols may be revised as local conditions change.
Tickets for Met Members will go ON SALE September 3 at 9am, and for the general public on September 10 at 9am. Tickets are for reserved seats, and can be ordered on our website, or by calling our box office at (207) 594-0070 and leaving a message.
Welcome back to the Met!
