Name a Seat at Symphony Hall

Welcome and take a seat… In celebration of Symphony Hall’s 25th year, I would like to offer you the opportunity to name a seat in our auditorium. Naming a seat gives you the chance to leave a lasting impression on our worldrenowned venue. It is the ideal gift to honour a family member or friend, a way to share your love of music with family, celebrate a special occasion, and to remember the fantastic concerts and events you have attended. Or it can simply be a way to say thank you. By choosing to name a seat in Symphony Hall, your donation will help us secure our future, so that we can continue to: • • • •
