Whoa! Designated a US National Historic Landmark in 1999, it is “acoustically , among the top three concert halls in the world and is considered the finest in the United States ." Enjoy!

Jake Smith

During intermission, the first light signal is a warning; there is a second warning. When you get inside the hall, take a moment to admire the architecture , especially on the ceiling.

Eric Andersen

One of the most iconic venues in Boston! While Orchestra seats are generally the most desired, the first balcony center front rows are some of the best in the house with sweeping views of the stage.

Skip the POPS where you have to listen to a goofy host who will find some way to offend you. Go to a symphony concert and have your soul touched.

Daniel Krueger

If going to a Pops concert get a floor table seat. They have a fun menu with waitress service. Of note the waitress can not deliver individual libations from the bar (bottle wine service only).

Garrett OBrien

The Boston Symphony's home - except for the summer when they move to Tanglewood for their 'rest'. One of the country 's top symphonies, the setting of the Hall is straight from the years of our early
