Imperial Symphony Orchestra Tickets

The Lakeland Symphony Orchestra (LSO) brings a long-standing tradition of orchestral excellence to Lakeland, Florida. Founded in 1965 as the Lakeland Civic Symphony and renamed Imperial Symphony Orchestra in 1987, the ensemble later rebranded to Lakeland Symphony Orchestra in 2021. Recognized with the Governor’s Award for Voluntarism in the Arts in 1994, the orchestra remains a cornerstone of Central Florida’s cultural scene. With a mission to engage the community through accessible concerts, school outreach, and dynamic seasonal programming, the LSO invites residents and visitors to experience orchestral music at its best.

Most performances are hosted at Branscomb Auditorium on the campus of Florida Southern College, a venue known for its intimate acoustics and student-friendly environment. The orchestra also collaborates with The Ashley Gibson Barnett Museum of Art at AGB for special events, enriching Lakeland’s cultural calendar. While a national tour isn’t a regular feature of the current schedule, the LSO delivers high-caliber concerts throughout Lakeland and the Central Florida region, from fall classics to family-friendly matinees.

Keep an eye on the official channels for the 60th season, announced for 2025–26, as the LSO expands its community programming and school outreach—continuing the tradition of bringing orchestral music to audiences of all ages.
