PLANNED GIVING
BE A LEGEND IN YOUR LIFETIME
To produce world-class opera, Calgary Opera relies on the generous support of donors who share our vision for a vibrant, esteemed, music-filled city.
Planned gifts help celebrate and sustain this special art form for future generations of opera lovers, and fund programs that take its creativity and accessibility to the next level.

Joining the Calgary Opera Legacy Society ensures that Calgary Opera acknowledges and directs your legacy gift in the way that you prefer.
As a member, you will be recognized in our production programs unless you wish to remain anonymous. You will also receive a special keepsake and be invited to exclusive Legacy Society events.
