On the Sunday following the Saturday Lime Rock IMSA WeatherTech and Michelin Pilot races, we have planned a matinee event at Tanglewood. Tanglewood is the premier outdoor concert venue in New England. This is the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Tanglewood’s stunning grounds offer the perfect backdrop for a summer afternoon of music.
The program features the American premier of Phoenix by Fazil Say and A German Requiem by Johannes Brahms. Andris Nelsons will be conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
NEQ will have space on the lawn marked off for NEQ members. Note that Tanglewood events are conducted rain or shine. Food, beer, and wine are available at various outlets on the Tanglewood grounds. You can also bring your own refreshments. We suggest you bring a blanket or chairs. Rental chairs are available. The gates open at 12pm.
Lawn tickets are $24 per person and can be purchased at the following website. Select your LAWN seat | Boston Symphony Orchestra
Tickets are also available inside the Shed in case of rain. Inside tickets start at $47. Select your SHED seat | Boston Symphony Orchestra
Tanglewood is located at 297 West Street, Lenox, MA 01240. Parking is free. Enter the grounds at the West Street Main Gate entrance.
Tanglewood is located about an hour north of Lime Rock Park. If you are staying overnight in the area on Saturday night, please note that hotels and motels near Tanglewood increase their prices and/or require multiple day reservations during the concert season. We suggest that you look for accommodations near Lime Rock (Salisbury and Lakeville, CT) or Great Barrington, MA.
Note that masking is optional for all those on the grounds or in the open-air Koussevitzky Music Shed.
