Opera Outdoors Picnic Contest
ESPAÑOL
Have you ever wanted to throw an elaborate al fresco feast with finery and flair?
Now’s your chance at the Opera Outdoors Picnic Contest sponsored by Pic’d on Purpose! A new addition to the concert this year, we invite you to grab a spot on the Turner Park lawn and put on your most creative spread. The park opens at 5:30pm on Friday August 20 and judges will begin deliberations (and perhaps sampling!) at 6pm. The contest will be adjudicated by Opera Outdoors emcee Chris Allen, General Manager of KVNO; Savanna Hobza, owner of Pic’d on Purpose; and Kurt Howard, Opera Omaha’s Producing Director.
Please note that tents, stakes, tarps, open flames, hard liquor and glass (bottles or drinking glasses) are not allowed in Turner Park and electrical outlets are not available.
Contest winners will be announced from the stage at 7pm, with prizes courtesy of Pic’d on Purpose, The Good Life Charcuterie and KVNO awarded for Best Overall Picnic and Best Opera-Themed Picnic.
Love to picnic but want someone else to do the work?

This local, woman owned business provides beautiful custom picnics that are ready to go upon your arrival to the park, so you have no set up or clean up.
