Buying a season ticket saves you 20% compared to purchasing tickets individually. You choose your seat for the season at the time of purchase, and you have first rights to that seat when you renew the following year.

What’s Included?
Pre-concert talks: Prior to all regular season concerts (except holiday) we feature a pre-concert talk, which is free to all ticket buyers. All talks occur at 3pm prior to the concert (not holiday pops on Dec. 8). These discussions provide a more in-depth look into the music performed that evening and give concertgoers more to listen for during the concert. Lectures will be hosted by Maestro Charles Peltz, front of stage, at the venue the symphony is performing at that afternoon.
