2021 Season

ACO 2021

Join the ACO in Canberra for a radiant hybrid season of live and digital performances. 

Live and Digital in 2021

We're presenting our most ambitious season yet in 2021, with live performances alongside a digital subscription of cinematic and immersive concert films – ACO StudioCasts.

You may notice a reduction in the number of Canberra tours and performances as we recover from the past year and brace ourselves for the future. Despite these necessary reductions in 2021, we're delighted to present three programs of live music in Canberra in May, August and November 2021. We invite you to explore the performances below and encourage you to complement your live subscription with a digital subscription to ACO StudioCasts. You’ll see the Orchestra and experience the music in a completely new and immersive way. 

Season subscriptions, single tickets and ACO StudioCasts subscriptions are now on sale. We hope you’ll join us for this new and exhilarating musical adventure.
