How can I move to an earlier advance sales period?
If you would like access to an earlier advance sales period, we invite you to consider deepening your support for the season ahead. Increase your giving level now, and we can accelerate your sales period in anticipation of reserving your subscription for the coming season. You can do so by contacting Courtney North, Associate Major Gifts Officer, at music@phillipscollection.org or 202.387.2151 x250.
How much is a ticket?
A single ticket for non-members is $50. A single ticket for a Phillips Collection member is $35 (30% discount).
What does a subscription include and how much does it cost?
Season subscriptions for the 2024-2025 season include one ticket to all Sunday Concerts and the single Thursday concert scheduled October 13, 2024, through May 4, 2025. A single season-long subscription for non-members is $1,200. A single season-long subscription for a Phillips Collection member is $840 (30% discount).
Can I purchase a subscription for a select number of concerts?
Not at this time. In the 2024/25 season, we are piloting season-long subscriptions. We may explore the potential of custom subscriptions in the future.
If I subscribe to the season, can I get a refund on the tickets I don’t use?
No; if you do not plan on attending all of the concerts, we recommend purchasing tickets to the selection of concerts that you plan to attend. Your subscription tickets are transferable to a friend if you can’t make it, or you may donate them back to the Phillips, and receive a tax deduction.
I purchased single tickets to a concert, and I cannot attend anymore, what should I do?
Please email reservations@phillipscollection.org with your full name and which concert you cannot attend. Your subscription tickets are transferable to a friend if you can’t make it, or you may donate them back to the Phillips, and receive a tax deduction.
Why can’t I be guaranteed specific seats?
Part of the allure of the Music Room is its intimate proportions, however due to the room size and limited seating, we may receive multiple requests for the same position. We will attempt to honor as many requests as we can and will communicate with you, in advance, should your seats be changed.
If you have additional questions, please contact music@phillipscollection.org or 202.387.2151 x250.
Thank you for your interest and support!
