Applying for a concert date

Important Notice
The Management of Wigmore Hall has made a strategic decision to further reduce the amount of dates available to external promoters in order to allow Wigmore Hall’s own concert series to expand. We will therefore only be able to accommodate a very small number of requests from now on. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this causes; however, it is the view of the Wigmore Hall Trust that the Hall should be primarily a presenting house rather than a receiving house.

Our concerts diary is currently fully booked for the next two to three seasons. We are still accepting hall hire applications for these seasons, however, should your application be successful, we will not be able to guarantee a date but will place you on a waiting list for possible cancellation dates.

 

In order to maintain our high reputation for quality, we take the policy of only presenting performances of the highest calibre and have a strict date application process.

A concert date application consists of a letter to the Director with which you should submit:

1. Details of the proposed concert
2. The periods in which you would like to be considered for a performance date at the Hall. NB We do not provide availability, and specific dates cannot be discussed at the point of an initial enquiry; we ask for all performers to provide us with their best periods and plan our concert diary on this basis.
3. A proposed programme
4. Biographies of the performers
5. Press reviews or publicity information on the performers
6. A recent audio recording of any or all of the performers to be involved.

For costs and further information about hiring the hall for a concert, please email the Management Office or call on +44 (0)20 7258 8200
