THE TAMPA BAY SYMPHONY'S
2020 - 2021 SEASON
Dear Patrons, as we progress through our 2020-2021 season, safety is our main concern. With this in mind we are still committed to bringing you live music at the Palladium venue for our Fall Series. We are programming chamber music selections which involve fewer musicians on stage for our Fall series. As we approach 2021, we will continue to monitor and follow CDC and state guidelines with respect to how we hold rehearsals and how we deliver the final performance to you in the concert halls. We are currently working on a lineup for our Winter Series involving some exciting chamber music selections.
This website will always reflect the most current programming, please check back often!
