This page has the very latest information about the orchestra’s concert activities worldwide. The St Petersburg Philharmonic anchors a prestigious season at home in the Great Hall of the Philharmonia (click the Playbill for details). The hall re-opened in mid 2007 following total renovation and is drawing capacity houses from its loyal St Petersburg public and newcomers alike. Experiencing one of the world’s greatest orchestra’s in one of the world’s greatest acoustics is something no visitor to the city should miss. Yuri Temirkanov takes the St Petersburg Philharmonic on more tours worldwide than almost any other orchestra, reaching an enormous international audience (click Tours for details). Some of these appearances are in festivals in the major cultural centres of the world, and the orchestra also hosts its own Winter festival (click Festivals for details).
