SEASON PREVIEW
It is truly wonderful to welcome audiences back to Wigmore
Hall again, with the hope of fuller houses from September.
Despite navigating the most difficult period in the Hall’s history,
we are under no illusion about the challenges ahead, as we all
continue on the uncertain road to recovery. There are big risks
involved and nobody can really predict the future. We hope
that major Covid restrictions are a thing of the past, but we are
mindful of the continuing global impact of the pandemic on our
interconnected musical community. There is the possibility of
postponements or cancellations as each international territory
moves through this crisis at a different pace. However, we
also want to be as confident as we possibly can be. We have
announced a hugely diverse programme of 500 concerts from
September 2021 to July 2022, and we will be quick on our
feet in reacting to challenges, as required, to deliver this, with
solutions in the Hall itself, or online, as we have done right
through this crisis.
It is only thanks to the generosity of our patrons, Friends and
many donors, as well as Government support, that we have
emerged from this stage of the pandemic intact. We will
continue to need your support in the year ahead, as we put the
musicians, who have lost so much in this period, back on our
stage. We know that audience confidence in returning to live
events from the autumn is generally high, but we can’t anticipate
exactly what the demand for tickets will be, just yet. We suspect
that we will open with smaller houses, building to full capacity
as the season progresses, but only time will tell. For now, we
anticipate a reduced audience capacity for September.
In this brochure, we are only offering the September and
October concerts for sale, but a preview of concerts to July
of next year is also presented. Let’s hope that all this can
go ahead. Full details for concerts from November will be
confirmed as we get more certainty in the autumn.
With renewed gratitude to you all for your essential help in
getting us this far and for your continued support and goodwill.
I look forward to welcoming you back to our new season soon.

Book with confidence Wigmore Hall is ready to give you a warm welcome. This autumn might be your first visit back to Hall, or even your first time visiting, so we want to let you know what has changed, and what never will. Quality Assured The repertoire heard by Wigmore Hall’s audiences spans the centuries and is brought to life by the world’s finest musicians and this hasn’t changed. This season, Wigmore Hall will still be presenting the best quality artists performing the most interesting and engaging programmes at the highest level for you to enjoy and appreciate. We can’t wait for you to discover new artists and music, and return to your favourites. Visiting the Hall Wigmore Hall Restaurant and Bar will be open from 1 September so you can enjoy a meal before your concert and catch up with friends over a drink during the interval. The cloakroom will be open for you to leave your belongings during the concert, and the lift will be operating. Cleaning Wigmore Hall will be maintaining regular cleaning and sanitation of the whole building so you can feel as comfortable as possible in the Hall. Hand sanitiser will be readily available too. Travel The best way to get to Wigmore Hall is by public transport. Our closest tube stations are Oxford Circus and Bond Street, and many bus routes pass through nearby Oxford Street. If you are arriving by car, you can be dropped off outside the main entrance on Wigmore Street. If you need a place to park, we can recommend Q-Park on Cavendish Square where you can get 50% off parking costs with your Wigmore Hall printed ticket or print at home ticket. Returns Policy If a concert is cancelled for any reason, you will receive a full refund. If you are unable to attend a concert and let us know two weeks in advance, we are happy to exchange your ticket for a credit voucher, valid for six months, so you can visit Wigmore Hall again in the future.
