The new season will celebrate James Levine's 40th Met anniversary with seven new productions, two Met premieres, and the start of a new Ring cycle—all featuring the world’s greatest opera stars. Now more than ever, the best way to experience the season is as a Subscriber. A season subscription guarantees your place at the performances you most want to see, offers flexible exchange options, and provides the greatest savings over single ticket prices. And this year, we are offering a payment plan option to make your subscription more affordable.

Benefits for Subscribers include:

Advance Purchase of Single Tickets

Season Subscribers and Patrons can purchase additional tickets to the full season, as well as tickets to gala events and special performances well ahead of the general public.

Subscriber Savings

Subscribers save 10% over single tickets and, in some cases, as much as 38%!

Exchange Privileges

As a Season Subscriber, you can exchange performances in your series until one week prior to the performance, based on availability. While the majority of performances are available for exchange, learn more about those few that are ineligible..

Order Early and Be eligible to Win Your Subscription for Free!*

Back by popular demand! If you subscribe to the Met’s 2010–11 season by March 22, you will receive a complimentary DVD of The Audition, Susan Froemke’s documentary about the Met’s National Council Auditions. You will also be automatically entered into a random drawing from which one lucky winner will have the cost of his or her subscription order refunded (*up to a value of $2,500). See metopera.org/earlysub for the rules.
