About the Event

Operanation VII, Cinderella: Rock the Ball, presented by TD Canada Trust, is the Canadian Opera Company’s premier event for young urban professionals, melding the inspirational venue of the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts with the must-attend arts fundraiser of the fall social season.  

On Friday, Oct. 29, 2010, Operanation VII will celebrate the world’s most-beloved fairytale, Cinderella, which is the inspiration for Rossini’s opera, La Cenerentola, appearing onstage during the COC’s 2010/2011 season. The event will take a very modern spin on the traditional Opera Ball and feature an incredible live performance alongside one of the COC’s up-and-coming opera stars. Guests will have a chance to make their dreams come true with amazing prizes and exotic raffle, plus a fantasy-filled silent auction. Journey from rags-to-riches in one night, and live happily ever after at the best bash of the year!

Guests can choose to purchase tickets to the V.I.P. Dinner or the main event itself.

The V.I.P. Dinner includes a sumptuous meal, live auction gift bag and a private performance by the Canadian Opera Company’s talented singers. This ultra-exclusive experience will unfold in the Henry N.R. Jackman Lounge, the spectacular two-storey room in the Four Seasons Centre. Afterwards, guests will have full access to the lavish festivities of Operanation VII. Tickets are $350 each and with a limited number available, they sell out quickly.

At Operanation VII, Cinderella: Rock the Ball party-goers will indulge in a spectacular array of the finest cuisine and cocktails, and enjoy live entertainment, dancing and much more. For $150 a ticket, 1,100 of Toronto’s young urban elite will mix, mingle and rock the night away in operatic proportions.
