80 free tickets

To celebrate our 80th birthday, we’re giving away 80 free tickets to first-time bookers for every concert in our 2025/26 London season.

Audience in the stalls at Royal Festival Hall

If you’ve never booked for a Philharmonia concert before, that means you!  

You can book up to two tickets for one concert of your choice. Your seat(s) will be allocated nearer the time, and we will send your ticket(s) by email two working days before the concert.  

To help you feel welcome at your first Philharmonia concert, you’ll also be invited along to Philharmonia Social – that could be a short intro to the music from Philharmonia staff or volunteers, a chat and a chance to ask questions in the interval, or an opportunity to meet players from the orchestra afterwards.  

These tickets will be available to book from 10am on Tuesday 29 April. Come back then to grab yours, and spread the word to your classical-curious friends.  

If the 80 free tickets for the concert you wanted have already gone, don’t despair – tickets start at just £12 for many of our concerts. Explore our London season below.
