Festival Chamber Orchestra Concert Series

Canterbury Festival is excited to be working with the Festival Chamber Orchestra to present three socially-distanced live events over May and June 2021. With stunning acoustics, a contemporary feel and ample room for audience-bubbles to relax – Kent College’s Great Hall is the ideal venue for audiences to enjoy the return of live music.

As with Canterbury Festival’s 2020 events, a number of covid-secure measures will be in place to ensure that the event can be delivered safely and in-line with Government legislation – for more details visit canterburyfestival.co.uk
