Cincinnati Opera Launches ‘Get Paul to Music Hall’ Campaign Inviting Paul McCartney to World Stage Premiere of ‘Liverpool Oratorio’


Cincinnati Opera wants to lure Paul McCartney to the city for July's world stage debut of his 'Liverpool Oratorio' classical work.

“This is a special time in Cincinnati, and the world stage premiere of Sir Paul’s Liverpool Oratorio is an incredible example of the excitement building around the Queen City,” Mayor Pureval tells Billboard. The project announced on Wednesday morning will include a barrage of ads this summer featuring the Opera and McCartney on Metro buses, at the CVG international airport, at Reds and FC Cincinnati soccer games, as well as a number of iconic downtown locations. The fanfare will kick off this weekend at the city’s traditional summer kick-off event, Taste of Cincinnati, which typically draws more than half a million visitors to the streets of downtown.
