Birmingham fills up on £1 tickets

Birmingham fills up on £1 tickets

The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra’s Season of Joy opened last night with Beethoven’s ninth to a packed house.

A correspondent writes: ‘The near-capacity audience was bolstered by an offer of tickets for a pound for those with a Birmingham postcode willing to queue for the special offer.’

The blurb about filming has been amended to this: We are happy for you to take photos and short videos at our concerts during applause breaks. We ask that you are mindful of disturbing artists and other audience members. Please dim the brightness on your phone, and do not use your flash.
