Privileges
Annual Gala
Invitation for two people
Each concert season the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra gives a grand Annual Gala for its loyal friends and relations. After the concert, everyone is welcome to attend surprising follow-up programmes in the Recital Hall, Mirror Hall, Choir Hall and the Dirigentenfoyer. Until midnight you have the opportunity to meet each other, the conductor, the soloists and the choir and orchestra members.
Season Celebration
Invitation for two people
This conclusion of the concert season is a popular event in which musicians from the Concertgebouw Orchestra perform a special programme together with members of the Academy and winners of the Salon Fund. All Salon members are invited to this unique evening together with our corporate partners and private donors.
Essentials concert with pre-reception at the Concertgebouw
Invitation for four people
The Essentials concert series was developed in collaboration with our global partners Unilever and ING. Essentials concerts introduce listeners to the greatest symphonic masterpieces with accessible introductions given by a presenter. Prior to Essentials concerts, members of De Salon get the chance to network in one of the foyers at the Concertgebouw.
Grand Salon
Invitation for four people
The Concertgebouworkest shows off another side at the Grand Salon, which features crossovers with other artistic disciplines, musicians giving talks, and discussions held on interesting subjects. It’s truly an experience money can’t buy!
