Gingerbread House Decorating Contest

Saturday, October 13, 2018 to Saturday, October 13, 2018
10:00 - 11:00 AM

Location: Pittsburgh Opera Headquarters

Parents and children 6 years and older, experience the fun and magic of Hansel & Gretel by participating in a free Gingerbread House Decorating Contest courtesy of Pittsburgh Opera and Eleven Contemporary Kitchen!

The contest will be held from 10:00-11:00am before our October Brown Bag Concert. You'll be able to take home your child's masterpiece, or enjoy it during the concert at 12pm. Check-in time for the contest starts at 9:45am.

Each participant will be given a delicious, pre-made edible gingerbread house courtesy of Eleven Contemporary Kitchen to decorate with icing and candies.

After, we will have a photographer take pictures of each house. The houses will be posted on Pittsburgh Opera's Facebook page for friends, family, and the Pittsburgh community to vote on their favorite! A winner will be determined via social media votes and will receive four free tickets to Hansel & Gretel and a backstage tour of the Benedum. Isn't that sweet?

Space is limited, so please make your reservation today. Reservations can be made online or by calling 412-281-0912 ext. 215.
