The Academy of Music celebrated its 162nd birthday on January 26, 2019. It is owned by the Philadelphia Orchestra and maintained by the Academy of Music Restoration, the non-profit that preserves and ensures the structural integrity of the National Historic Landmark.

It is the oldest opera house in the United States, and it is the home of the Philadelphia Orchestra, Opera Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania Ballet, the Philly Pops and the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society. La Scala in Milan, Italy, is the model for the venue. The Philadelphia Orchestra's annual Anniversary Concert and Ball fundraiser is held in the Academy of Music.
