The Metropolitan Opera, founded in 1880, is a prized jewel of New York City's cultural treasures and sitting in the audience is a stellar experience. Each season the Met stages more than 200 opera performances and the lineups are an eclectic mix of familiar favorites and adventurous picks, classic stagings and the avante garde. The Met also has displays and exhibits scattered through the entire house; walk around and take a glance at the galleries on the lower level or inspect some costumes up close on the grand tier. People-watching is just as much a spectacle, and an opera tradition, as the story unfolding onstage.
