OPERA America and Opera Memphis welcome the opera industry to Memphis, Tennessee for Opera Conference 2025 — the world’s most influential gathering of opera producers!
Opera Conference 2025 will challenge us to envision a new future for opera as an art form and a business. Questions about how companies can deepen their value to the communities they serve and how opera can be a beacon for civic impact on the local level will shape the national discussion. Through dynamic Plenary Sessions, collaborative Breakout Sessions and Roundtable Discussions, a New Works Pitch Session, and a new Co-Production Assembly, attendees will explore the big topics in our industry. Together, we will develop solutions and strategies that advance the creation and sustainability of opera and elevate its role in society.
Featuring Keynote Speaker Deborah F. Kennedy.
