This fall, Alabama Symphony Orchestra — Alabama's only full-time professional orchestra — is trading the concert hall for the outdoors with Symphony in the Gardens, a free, family-friendly afternoon at Birmingham Botanical Gardens.
Bring a blanket and gather the family before our classically trained, career musicians take the stage under the open sky. This is what belonging sounds like — no ticket required.
Whether you've been coming to A*O concerts for years or you're bringing the kids for their very first live orchestra experience, this one's for everyone.
