OPERA America's 2025 Annual Field Report is designed to provide leaders in the field with a comprehensive overview of the financial health and productivity of opera companies in North America.

The key findings of the Annual Field Report are drawn from the fiscal year 2024 data submitted by OPERA America’s Professional Company Members (PCMs) in the annual Professional Opera Survey administered by SMU DataArts. The report aggregates PCMs into five budget groups based on the size of their operating budgets in order to provide general benchmarks for companies of similar size.

Also included in this year's Annual Field Report:

• The Field at a Glance in 2023–2024
• Special Report on New Audience Research
• OPERA America's 2025 Year in Review
