The Syracuse Orchestra Spring Gala

Join us on May 12, 2027, at 6:00 PM at the historic Marriott Syracuse Downtown for The Syracuse Orchestra’s Spring Gala. The Orchestra’s concerts cost an average of $40,000 each to bring to the stage. This year’s gala supports a $200,000 goal, enough to fund five of the more than 30 performances presented each year. Join us as we celebrate this year’s Champions and Spotlight Recognitions.

The gala includes a full open bar with hors d’oeuvres, a three-course dinner, and a Syracuse Orchestra concert. If you purchase a table, we will contact you for your guests’ names.
