It’s Music to Our Ears: Opera Omaha Activity Passes!

October 14, 2025October 14, 2025

Opera Omaha's advertising image for The Barber of Seville, featuring the title and the titular character, who twirls his mustache.

Thank you to the amazing and generous Opera Omaha team, we can now offer Opera Omaha tickets to our Activity Pass program!

Stop by either library building with a valid, active adult library card in good standing for your pass that’s good for two tickets, while supplies last.

Only one pass per household per opera. In other words, you cannot get a pass for each performance of The Barber of Seville.

You will book your ticket(s) online, using GPL’s special promocode. This means that you get to choose your seats.

The first opera available is Rossini’s legendary The Barber of Seville.
- Performances are on Friday, October 24, 2025 at 7:30pm and the matinee on Sunday, October 26, 2025 at 2:00pm.
- The performance runs approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes with one 20-minute intermission.

Keep an eye out for availability for both The Barber of Seville and future operas on GPL’s Activity Passes page.
