Very comfortable. A wonderful place to listen to your favorite artist(s) The acoustics were wonderful from balcony or right up front on the floor. (we had opportunity sitting in both areas) The seats are very comfortable. No bad seat in the house.

One of the best venues for live music in the Bay Area. It is small with great acoustics. We sat in the balcony, middle, first row, but from our viewpoint there did not seem to be a bad seat in the house. The concert was fabulous. We so enjoyed it, we will be back for other performances at the Opera... More

It is a small town with a small opera house compared to the big cities but the entertainment is big, The attendants are more helpful than other places I have been. Nice restaurant with live music for after the concert.

My wife and I were fortunate to secure tickets at NVOH for the 10th Anniversary of its renovation as well as a tribute to Margarit Mondavi. Performers were the Preservation Hall Jazz Band who presented as fine a concert as I have ever heard. They are wonderful musicians who play a variety of music non-stop then add an encore performance.... More

We recently went to the Napa Valley Opera House for the first time and were pleasantly surprised. The venue is quite intimate and warm. The staff were friendly and helpful. Seating was comfortable and the stage was easily viewed from anywhere in the auditorium. I'm looking forward to another concert there next week.

Our only disappointment was that we paid a good chunk to attend a benefit and were very disappointed that only profiteroles were served. Not very... More
