Tanglewood to Introduce Season Lawn Pass - November 14, 2007
LENOX - The Tanglewood 2008 season will introduce new opportunities, discounts and benefits for music lovers in the Berkshires and beyond.
As part of an effort to provide broad public access to the Boston Symphony Orchestra to year-round Berkshire residents, Tanglewood is introducing a series of new initiatives for next summer, including a $75 full-season lawn pass allowing visitors to attend up to 50-plus performances throughout the season.
In addition, for the first time ever, the festival's annual Berkshire Night will take place on
the first BSO concert of the season, Saturday, July 5, allowing 1,000 year-round residents of the Berkshires to enjoy Tanglewood’s Opening Night performance for free. Program details for the 2008 Tanglewood season will be released on Thursday, Nov. 29.
Back by popular demand, the Tanglewood 2008 Family Concert is scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 23, at 2 p.m. The performance will feature musical selections with special appeal to families, as well as pre-concert craft activities for children exploring classical music themes. The concert is free for children and $10 for adults.
The lawn pass for Berkshire residents will be available for purchase when the box office opens
in June and will give holders access to all classical music concerts, prelude concerts, and open rehearsals during the 2008 season. Passes will be non-transferable photo IDs and are not valid for the Jazz Festival, Popular Artists Series, the Prairie Home Companion Concert, the Fourth of July Concert, or performances that take place in the Theatre Concert Hall programs.
For the Berkshire Night concert, the first 1,000 residents (with a valid Massachusetts license) to
visit the box office from Monday, June 30, through Wednesday, July 2, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. will be able to pick up two complimentary tickets.
Tickets for the 2008 season go on sale Sunday, Feb. 17. For more information, visit www.tanglewood.org. |
| Excuse me but I don't fully understand the " year round Berkshire Resident Requirement. We own a large place here in Stockbridge for the last 9 years and pay more than our fair share of taxes. I was told today, when I purchased several tickets for Prairie Home Companion, that to qualify for the new Season Lawn Pass a Mass Drivers license was required. That does not make sense since that that is not what the requirement states. and if we just rented here in the Berkshires year round, and payed no local taxes, according to the ticket clerk, all I would need is a Mass drivers license. We spend many months here Summer and winter and keep our legal residence in Florid for obvious reasons. Please address my confusion as to what would be the "real requirements" for this Season Pass. We could easily produce the tax bill and utility bills (choke) if required. Email: orthogary2@aol.com or Call me (if I don't call you first) 413-298-4049 | | from: Gary Kreitman M.

Is purchase of the $75 lawn pass restricted to year-round Berkshire residents?
Thank you.
