At Ripon Concerts, one of our core aims is to inspire and support the next generation of musicians and music lovers. To help make live music more accessible, we offer free tickets to students in full-time education and to young people aged 18 and under. To further support families, we also provide up to two complimentary tickets for adults accompanying a young person aged 18 and under. We are extremely grateful to a generous local Charity for funding this initiative.
Alongside our free ticket initiative, we are proud to run the Young Performers’ Platform. This exciting opportunity invites two talented young musicians (Grade 6 and above) to showcase their skills by performing at the start of each of our 6 concerts. Participants also have the chance to meet the professional musicians featured in the main programme.
If you are interested in performing as part of the Young Performers’ Platform for the first three concerts of the 2025/26 season, please complete the application form via the Google link below. Applications close on Monday September 15th and spaces are limited to 2 young performers per concert.
