Benaroya Hall Open House

Free tickets for the Seattle Symphony’s concert with The Head and the Heart will be available in-person only at Benaroya Hall beginning at 9am on the day of the Open House. Limit two tickets per person, while supplies last. Tickets are not required for any other Open House events or activities.

Hello, Seattle! A monumental event is coming to Benaroya Hall this fall. Join us October 18 for a FREE, all-day celebration as Benaroya Hall comes alive with music, performances, storytellers, food and surprises around every corner. Every performance venue and public space will be activated throughout the day, filled with local artists on every stage and exclusive ticket offers to discover.

This day-long community festival includes performances by Totem Star artists, Chinese American Bear with Seattle Symphony musicians, a Tiny Tots quartet featuring Seattle Symphony musicians, a set curated by KEXP Sounds of Survivance DJ Kevin Sur. Other event highlights include a Romantasy author panel and book signing in partnership with Beguiled Books, an Arte Noir exhibition and opening reception featuring a Seattle Repertory Jazz Orchestra performance, a National Geographic Live presentation with photographer Steve Winter, and a video game music panel featuring Dave Gross, Kazuma Jinnouchi, Wilbert Roget II, Nadia Wheaton and Danny Baranowsky.

The Open House will build toward a spectacular finale featuring a FREE performance with the full Seattle Symphony orchestra and members of the indie folk-rock group The Head and The Heart — then we’ll keep the energy going with a dance party in the lobby.

Come explore your reimagined Benaroya Hall and celebrate an exciting new chapter for the home of inspiration, creativity and connection in the heart of Seattle.
