The Patrons’ Association is our cornerstone

The Savonlinna Opera Festival is backed by a non-profit organisation on a mission to ”create international opera with Finnish professional expertise”. The Savonlinna Opera Festival Patrons’ Association was founded in 1972. It currently has approximately 750 members. Anyone can join simply by paying the membership fee, which supports the operations of the Opera Festival.

The Patrons’ Association offers a genuine opportunity for you to make a difference. The Patrons’ Association elects a member committee, which in turn elects the festival’s Board of Directors. Participating in the meeting of the Patrons’ Association is voluntary, and the meeting takes place every three years.
