Catch a magical Sydney Symphony Orchestra concert this winter and save 20 per cent off your tickets

Sydneysiders are a bit spoiled by the loveliness of our long, warm summers. But personally, I think that exploring the Harbour City in wintertime is one of the cosiest and coolest things you can do – and a trip to the Sydney Opera House or the stunning City Recital Hall for a concert is at the top of the winter warmer list. 

Until July 18  the Sydney Symphony Orchestra is sweetening the deal with 20 per cent off A-C Reserve tickets for selected concerts in this year’s season. Whether you’re a seasoned classical music lover or a newcomer to the world of orchestras, there’s something to suit all tastes, with nine performances to choose from. 

Escape the winter blues with a lively journey to Spain with Ravel and Falla, or to Egypt’s River Nile via Saint-Saëns’ exhilarating piano concerto. Be amazed by some of the world’s most brilliant soloists, and discover why Mozart and Beethoven remain iconic after nearly 300 years.

And if you're new to classical music, try Listen to This: part concert, part TED talk, with conductor Benjamin Northey unpacking exactly why music gives us goosebumps. 

Performances take place all throughout June, July and August at the Sydney Opera House and City Recital Hall. To score 20 per cent off your tickets, be sure to book before Friday, July 18. Find out more about the full program and book here.
