It has been a source of great joy to welcome larger audiences
back to Wigmore Hall since early September. Thanks to the
generosity and kindness of our supporters, our diverse concert
and learning programme continues to enrich the lives of
audiences in the Hall and online. Your support also enables us
to help musicians, who lost so much due to COVID-19, get back
on their feet, although many of them still carry a heavy burden.
The Hall continues to face challenges and rebuilding audiences
to full capacity is going to be an uphill battle. Audiences are
returning slowly; sometimes the Hall is completely full, but in
September we averaged only 50% of capacity. This was to
be expected as many remain cautious. Attendance has since
greatly improved, but your ongoing generosity enables us
to plan for the long term and to inspire the concert seasons
ahead. We cannot allow what was a thriving programme at the
forefront of the chamber music world to be diminished. There
are many ways to support the Hall as we navigate this critical
period, whether it be through our Friends, our invaluable
Audience Fund, or by contributing to our newly launched
Wigmore Ensemble which we set up specifically to help us on
the road to recovery. Please continue to give as much as you
can. It is making all the difference to the artists as they build up
work commitments, to audiences in the Hall and to audiences
watching from home.
I take encouragement from the fact that the pandemic caused
many people to reflect on just how important the arts and
music are in our lives and the scale of what could be lost
without adequate support, and I am filled with gratitude when
I think about everything you do for Wigmore Hall in these
times of particular difficulty. Your generosity gives us hope, a
precious thing for musicians and audiences worldwide.
I look forward to welcoming to you to a Wigmore Hall event,
either online or in person as the season continues.
John Gilhooly, Director
© Kaupo KikkasBook with confidence Wigmore Hall is ready to give you a warm welcome. This spring might be your first visit back to the Hall, or even your first time visiting, so we want to let you know what has changed, and what never will. Quality Assured The repertoire heard by Wigmore Hall’s audiences spans the centuries and is brought to life by the world’s finest musicians and this hasn’t changed. This season, Wigmore Hall will still be presenting the best quality artists performing the most interesting and engaging programmes at the highest level for you to enjoy and appreciate. We can’t wait for you to discover new artists and music, and return to your favourites. Visiting the Hall Wigmore Hall Restaurant and Bar will be open for you to enjoy food before your concert and catch up with friends over a drink during the interval. The cloakroom will be open for you to leave your belongings during the concert, and the lift will be operating. Cleaning Wigmore Hall will be maintaining regular cleaning and sanitation of the whole building so you can feel as comfortable as possible in the Hall. Hand sanitiser will be readily available too. Travel The best way to get to Wigmore Hall is by public transport. Our closest tube stations are Oxford Circus and Bond Street, and many bus routes pass through nearby Oxford Street. If you are arriving by car, you can be dropped off outside the main entrance on Wigmore Street. If you need a place to park, we can recommend Q-Park on Cavendish Square where you can get 50% off parking costs with your Wigmore Hall printed ticket or print at home ticket. Returns Policy If a concert is cancelled for any reason, you will receive a full refund. If you are unable to attend a concert and let us know two weeks in advance, we are happy to exchange your ticket for a credit voucher, valid for six months, so you can visit Wigmore Hall again in the future.
