Opera Dining
Add to your experience with a variety of pre-opera dinners, tailgate picnics and opening night dinners!
Preview Dinners
Enjoy an opera-themed buffet dinner at our open-air cantina on the beautifully landscaped grounds. During dessert, a speaker will offer a brief introduction to the evening’s opera.
A Preview Dinner is a great way to kick off your night at the opera. Wine will be available for purchase by the glass or bottle.
Tailgate Picnics
Experience the fun of this Santa Fe Opera tradition! You are welcome to bring your own or enjoy one of our delicious Tailgate Picnics. Choose from a range of Starter and Dinner Boxes. Due to seasonality of fresh ingredients, menus vary slightly. Seating availability on Twomey Terrace (adjacent to the Box Office) is limited and non-reserved. Tailgate picnics are prepared and presented by Walter Burke Catering.
Not offered on August 10 and 17.

Refreshments
Desserts, snacks, wine, mixed drinks and non-alcoholic beverages are available for purchase at several bars located throughout the opera before the performance and at intermission.
