Jacksonville Symphony – You don’t have to know much about Beethoven, Mozart, or Bach to appreciate the way live music hits the soul. Symphonies are not reserved for the rich. Live classical theaters do not require guests to be sophisticated intellectuals from affluent families.
It’s for these reasons I decided to share details that visitors of Jax often overlook. Let me introduce you to the Jacksonville, FL Symphony. Basically, a magical experience everyone can enjoy.
Jacksonville Symphony Hall:
Robert Jacoby Hall is designed to enhance the sound of the live orchestra performance. This intimate concert hall was established in 1997 and has a seating capacity of approximately 1,700.
Venue: The Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts & Jacoby Hall
Address: 300 Water Street, Downtown Jacksonville, FL 32202
New To The Symphony Experience? Try This Out!
Did you know the city of Jacksonville, Florida Symphony offers movie nights? Feeling intimidated by classical music? Watch the Return Of The Jedi movie while the orchestra plays the soundtrack live on stage.
Holiday at the Pops Concert:
Guests to Florida won’t likely see a lot of holiday snow, after all this is Northern Florida. However, admission to this Florida symphony will have you believing it’s cold outside.
Oh, by the way, it snows in this concert auditorium. I highly recommend purchasing tickets early for any of the Christmas performances.
Final Thoughts on the Symphony in Jacksonville, Florida:
I often felt intimated by a live concert orchestra experience, until my first visit. I perceived that the atmosphere would be stuffy. It was not.
