Lenox — The Boston Symphony Orchestra has added a third day in March when the Tanglewood Box Office will be open for in-person ticket sales. The first day of the public sale is Tuesday, March 19, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., with the same hours on the 20th and 21st.
Tickets will be sold inside the Welcome Center, which is right next door to the Main Gate Box Office.
Also note that all tickets to Popular Artists concerts are digital this year, which means they will be delivered in the mobile format (e.g., smart phone) but will also be available to pick up in person at Will Call, in both paper and mobile formats, five days before the concert.
Purchasing Tanglewood tickets in person can save you a lot of money, because when you buy them online, you pay a $7.50 handling fee per ticket.
The 2024 Tanglewood season features Music Director Andris Nelsons in his new role as head of conducting. Nelsons will lead 10 programs and two master classes, including two performances with the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra and concerts celebrating Tanglewood founder Serge Koussevitzky’s 150th birth anniversary.
