If you do arrive late, video screens projecting the live performance are available in the lobby so you won't miss a moment. Please remember that if you arrive after curtain time or exit the theater during the performance you might miss part of the opera, as seating during the performance is often not possible.

We realize situations arise that can delay your arrival and will try to accommodate latecomers in an available section of the house or at a predetermined break, but latecomers might not be seated until intermission. Lyric Opera performances begin promptly at the published times.

The Lyric Opera House doors open two hours before the start of every performance, allowing plenty of time for you to sit down for a meal in one of our on-site restaurants, learn more about your performance at a pre-opera talk, or sip a glass of wine from one our many lobby bars.
