THE MAGIC BEGINS WITH YOU
Become a Patron and help bring unforgettable opera and musical theatre to life.
The generosity of our community of Patrons and opera lovers is at the heart of Victorian Opera. Their passion for this remarkable art form ensures we can continue creating and presenting outstanding productions year after year.
The impact of our Patrons’ annual contributions cannot be overstated. Their tax-deductible support plays a vital role in everything we do, enabling Victorian Opera to create and share the magic of opera.
Become a Patron and experience first-hand how your support makes a difference.
Our Patrons’ Engagement Program introduces you to an inner circle of likeminded supporters and our exclusive activities and events for 2027 include:
2027 Opera Prize Winners Recital
Hear our Opera Prize scholarship recipients in a private recital at Horti Hall and meet the artists afterwards in an intimate reception.
2027 Rehearsal Series
Enjoy a sneak peek into the rehearsal process for our productions. The series offers exclusive behind-the-scenes access revealing how a production evolves from score to stage. It’s an informative and enriching way to see our creatives, artists and technicians at work in our studio and observe how your investment supports the work we do.
Patrons’ Pre-show Receptions
Patrons holding tickets to our mainstage productions will be invited to an exclusive
pre-show reception on designated performance nights. During these events, you will hear insights into the production and enjoy opportunities to connect with our inner circle Patrons.
Patrons’ Engagement Program activities will be announced in our monthly Patrons’ Prelude e-newsletter and on our Patrons’ Engagement Program page.
