Two Orchestras. Two Countries.  One Stage. One Extraordinary Night.

Two world-class orchestras come together for an unforgettable musical event at The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park.

The San Diego Symphony Orchestra welcomes the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal (OSM) for a spectacular performance led by Rafael Payare, Music and Artistic Director of both orchestras. For one extraordinary evening, musicians from San Diego and Montréal will join forces on a single stage, creating an orchestra of breathtaking scale, power and possibility.

It’s a musical meeting unlike anything San Diego has experienced – two cities, two celebrated orchestras and the shared artistic vision of one dynamic conductor, united through music.

Experience the thrilling sound of these remarkable musicians together, surrounded by the downtown skyline and waterfront at The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park.

Admission is free.

RSVP today to receive event updates and additional information before the concert.

A limited number of chairs will be available on a first-come, first-served basis – but creating your own experience on the lawn is part of the fun! Bring a blanket or low-back chair, find your perfect spot, and settle in for a moving evening of music.

Please note: This is a free, non-ticketed event. RSVP helps us share event information with you but does not reserve a seat.
