What’s on at The Met?
We’re looking forward to Summer and Autumn 2021 as a time when, if all goes well, we can start to welcome you back to The Met to safely enjoy brilliant live experiences.
The government’s Roadmap out of Lockdown gives July 19 as the earliest date from which we might be able to start more normal operations; here’s a list of the shows you can see from then onwards.
