California Riverside Ballet Tickets

California Riverside Ballet is a longstanding American ballet company founded in 1969, with a mission to bring accessible, high-quality dance to Riverside and surrounding communities. Under the artistic direction of Mario Nugara and the careful guidance of Ballet Mistress Stephanie Saland, the company presents a mix of classical repertoire and contemporary works. The music program is led by Music Director Scott Dunn, ensuring performances pair live orchestration with precise choreography.

While the company’s headquarters have evolved over time, the Riverside Fox Theater has long stood as a principal venue for performances, offering a storied stage for dancers and audiences alike. The company is also known for its community initiatives, including the Academy Program launched in 2013 to provide affordable or free ballet training to underserved communities, helping nurture the next generation of dancers.

One of the organization’s signature yearly events is Ghost Walk Riverside, a Halloween-themed fundraiser featuring live dance and storytelling in Downtown Riverside. This beloved production blends theatrical storytelling with movement, drawing audiences from across the region each fall.
