80 free tickets for first-time bookers

To celebrate our 80th birthday, we’re giving away 80 tickets for every concert in our 2025/26 London season to first-time bookers. If you’ve never booked for a Philharmonia concert before, that means you.  

Here’s how it works:  

1. Click on ‘Account’ in the top right hand corner of the screen, and set up a login 
2. Choose one of the concerts in our London season from the list below – if a concert from our season no longer appears on this page, that’s because all 80 free tickets have been snapped up already 
3. Select one or two tickets, anywhere in the pink price bands in the rear stalls, or if you are a wheelchair user, the pink wheelchair spaces in the side stalls. For the 1 March concert in the Queen Elizabeth Hall, you can choose any seat in the blue price band, or if you are a wheelchair user, the blue wheelchair spaces in the front row. 
4. You can select more tickets, or book for more concerts, but these will be charged at their usual price 
5. Click ‘Go to checkout’ and your tickets will show up as £0  
6. Click ‘Continue’ and complete the booking process – you can choose to receive your tickets by post, or we can send them by email two working days before the concert 
7. As your concert approaches, we’ll be in touch with details of Philharmonia Social – a chance for you to find out more about the orchestra, ask questions and meet other first-time attenders, before the concert, in the interval or afterwards 

We’re looking forward to sharing the incredible experience of hearing a live orchestra with you – welcome to the Philharmonia!
