You’re invited to enjoy this series of Opera a la Cart performances at our artistic home, the Hampton Opera Center.

Enjoy performances of operatic gems on our home turf that celebrate talented singers and musicians in PDX. These events are free and open to the public.

Inspired by Portland’s food cart culture, Opera a la Cart is a mobile performance venue that brings live opera performance directly into the community spaces where people gather. Designed and built by architecture students at Portland State University, the cart features a fold-out stage and a “menu” of operatic specials of the day to be sung by local artists.
