The Metropolitan Opera takes Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s The Magic Flute and adapts it into a family-friendly, English-language version that’s full of holiday spirit and enchantment.

Showtimes vary.

At every performance of The Magic Flute, families can enjoy free activity books and themed photo opportunities throughout the lobby. Special downloadable activities are also available online to explore before or after your visit.

Complimentary face painting is available before the matinee performances on December 27, 29, and 30 and January 3.
