Classical/Pops refers to an orchestra that plays both well-known classical works as well as contemporary popular music, accompanied by pop and rock stars, Broadway performers, opera singers, and film composers as featured guests. Some of the world’s most esteemed orchestras, including the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and The Philadelphia Orchestra perform these programs. These collaborations are almost universally loved and draw tens of thousands of fans to the symphony.

There is no box office on the festival grounds. The best option is to purchase tickets online. If available, two-day festival passes and one-day tickets can be purchased at local retail box office partners up to the day of performance.

Unfortunately, tickets are non-refundable.

The Classical/Pops Festival is designed in the tradition of some of our favorite pavilion and lawn venues in the United States such as the Tanglewood Music Center and the Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts. These offer both seating and lawn areas. All ticket holders have access to reserved comfortable seating areas but also have the option of an informal and comfortable place to stretch out on their own blanket or folding chair.
