Auburn Symphony Orchestra Gala postponed; concert cancelled

Due to the escalating situation surrounding COVID-19, including Gov. Inslee’s most recent school closures through at least April 24, Auburn Symphony Orchestra’s (ASO) Gala scheduled for April 25 will be postponed and the Symphony Series concert scheduled for April 26 will be cancelled.

The organization issues the following release:

ASO is looking into alternative dates for the gala and will notify patrons as soon as possible with updates.

Because of the many factors that go into scheduling a concert, there are no plans to reschedule the symphony concert. ASO regrets not being able to provide this performance, but their top priority is the health and safety of their patrons and musicians.

Already have a ticket? Consider donating your ticket. Your tax-deductible donation means that the next time you join ASO for a concert, the orchestra will be here to share the joy of live music with you once more, as a healthy, vibrant and financially secure organization.

Still need a refund? Please contact the office at 253-887-7777 or email info@auburnsymphony.org to request a refund. Please know that they are responding to a high volume of messages and will respond ASAP.
