Passes represent fantastic value. A day pass will give you access to every concert and workshop taking place that day for just £20 while a weekend pass is just £30. A pass holder can save nearly 50% compared to buying tickets individually so it’s a great deal for classical music fans.
The festival, now in its third year, will run from 8 to 10 March. In 2019, the programme sees concerts and workshop programmed into ‘clusters’ of activity meaning different areas of the city will host the Weekend on different days. This saves travel time for audience members and means those enjoying the entire weekend will enjoy a different part of the city each day.
With restricted numbers on passes we recommend purchasing them early to avoid disappointment. Visit this webpage or call 0114 2233 777.
