2013 Honors Performance Family Programs
Performing at Carnegie Hall is a once-in a-lifetime experience! We are proud to offer two Family Program packages to allow family members, friends, and educators to share in the Honors Performance Series experience. Since some Series rehearsals are closed, activities and free time to explore New York City are included in the Family Program packages. Each itinerary provides an opportunity to experience the best of the sights and the performing arts in New York City. By joining one of our packages, participants gain exclusive access to attend airport shuttles (on designated days), a rehearsal, and the Post-Performance Celebration, while also receiving an exclusive priority seating ticket to Carnegie Hall.
For families who wish to attend the Carnegie Hall performance, but who may not wish to take advantage of one of the Family Program packages, individual non-priority tickets will be made available to the performance. Tickets (as still available) will go on sale 60 days prior to the event and may be purchased directly from Carnegie Hall’s box office.
