               THE Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra is coming
               to Barrow next year as part of a long-term creative partnership, it
               was announced today (October 31).


               The first concert is on Saturday January 20, 2024 at The Forum Theatre on
               Duke Street with Domingo Hindoyan conducting Beethoven’s Fifth
               Symphony.


               The Liverpool Philharmonic and its musicians will be at the heart of

               Barrow's musical life for the next three years which includes more
               concerts at The Forum and town hall with events designed for under-5s
               and dementia-friendly performances.

               orchestral music in their local community.

               happy to be bringing our love of music to Barrow.


               "Music is for everyone and through our concerts, Youth Company, In
               Harmony and Music and Health programmes we have seen first-hand
               how music can transform lives.


               "Our passion for music is at the heart of every one of our concerts, and

               we can’t wait to share this with everyone in Barrow."
