Opera - Live-at-the-Met in South Burlington.
​

During opera season, VICA members often attend the Live-at-theMet broadcasts at Palace 9 to enjoy an Italian opera.
Reservations are made at a local Italian restaurant for dinner together afterwards.  Members are notified when reservations are being made for dinner after a particular opera.

On our October  2014 excursion to Live-at-the-Met  we enjoyed  Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro set  in the 1930s followed  by a pasta dinner at Buono Appetito. The April 2015 performance was Cavalleria rusticana and Pagliacci followed by dinner at
Buono Appetito, and in April 2016 we enjoyed Madama Butterfly followed by dinner at La Villa .  In March 2017 we enjoyed
La Traviata followed by dinner at La Villa.

From time to time, VICA has also organized and sponsored a bus trip to live Italian opera at Montreal's Place des Arts followed by a meal in a restaurant in 'Old Montreal.'
