Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra Tickets

The Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, founded in 1991, established itself as the region’s premier, full-time professional orchestra. Based in New Orleans, the LPO has become a cultural cornerstone, delivering orchestral programs that honor traditional repertoire while embracing contemporary collaborations and community-driven initiatives. The orchestra’s artistic direction has evolved under three influential music directors, aligning high-quality performances with the city’s vibrant musical landscape.

In recent years, the LPO has fostered notable collaborations that expand the orchestra’s reach beyond the concert hall, partnering with acclaimed artists and groups from diverse genres to create memorable, cross-genre performances that appeal to a broad audience. The ensemble is committed to accessibility, education, and community engagement, maintaining a robust schedule across the Gulf South.

The LPO’s 2025-26 season features performances at premier venues across New Orleans and the Gulf South. Expect a balanced mix of classical masterworks, pops-style programs, and collaborative productions. Notable venues include the Orpheum Theater (New Orleans), the New Marigny Theatre, and Covington’s Fuhrmann Auditorium, among others. Date-specific details will be announced as events are scheduled, and tickets will be available for individual performances as soon as dates are confirmed.

Key seasonal initiatives include Swing in the Oaks, a beloved annual free community concert at City Park, designed to bring orchestral music to families and neighbors in a relaxed outdoor setting. Check back for exact dates and lineups as they are published.
