Building on the success of the previous #BathPhilForFree scheme, in which over 5,000 tickets were gifted to residents, Bath Philharmonia will offer people one thousand tickets for each of its concerts at The Bath Forum for the duration of its 2022/23 season.
The concert hall is being opened up to those who may have never heard a live orchestra before or want to try something new.
Shelley, from Paulton, who attended her first Bath Phil concert this year, said: “I’d never really thought that orchestras were for people like me, but I felt really welcome at the concert and loved the music.”
The gift of a free ticket is offered as a chance to enjoy a night out at a time when many people are struggling with household bills. Bath Philharmonia will be extending their invitation to every household in Bath and the surrounding area.
Cameron, from Twerton, who brought his family to a concert commented: “What a super introduction to hearing a live orchestra for the first time, my children loved it!”
Tickets can be booked at Bath Box Office and full details on the concerts and the special offer can be found at www.bathphil.co.uk/bathphilforfree.
Jason Thornton, Music Director of Bath Philharmonia said: “The atmosphere at our concerts is genuinely exciting as we welcome so many new people to the concert hall. Come out and try something new!”
Bath Philharmonia has been bringing people together through music since 2000.
