We are very excited to welcome the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic to the heart of Barrow's musical life for the next three years.
The world-famous orchestra is coming to Barrow-in-Furness in January 2024 thanks to a creative partnership including Arts Council England, The Forum theatre Barrow, Art Gene, BarrowFull, Cumbria Music Hub and Westmorland and Furness Council.
Whether you're a fan of classical music or this is your first time hearing a live orchestra, this partnership will give more people the opportunity to hear orchestral music in their community.
From concerts at The Forum and Barrow Town Hall to events designed for under-5s and dementia-friendly performances at Barrow Library, there will be something for everyone - including inspirational music-making projects in schools.
