THE NEW ZEALAND OPERA SOCIETY

In the 2006-07 season, the Metropolitan Opera launched Metropolitan Opera: Live in HD, a series of performance transmissions shown live in high definition (HD) in movie theatres around the world. The series expanded from six to eight opera transmissions in 2007-08, reaching over 600 participating venues in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia — and now in New Zealand. Don’t miss your chance to see The Met Opera captured live on the big screen, at a participating cinema near you!
