Salon Series
The Salon Series at Wolf Trap Opera offers an intimate and immersive evening of vocal artistry, with each night curated by the performing artists themselves. Held four times across June and July 2026 at the cozy Barns venue, guests begin with dinner before settling in for a bespoke musical program performed just feet away. The limited-capacity setting allows audiences to experience extraordinary voices in rare proximity, with a different program and lineup for each date. From sopranos and baritones to tenors and mezzo-sopranos, accompanied by accomplished pianists, the series showcases the depth of Wolf Trap Opera’s talent in an elegant, one‑of‑a‑kind setting.
When: Monday, June 8; Monday, June 22; Monday, July 6; Monday, July 20 — all in 2026.
Showtimes: Performances begin at 7:30 PM each night. Doors open at 6:00 PM, allowing time for dinner and drinks before the show.
