SPRING & FALL

While the festival has made its name by virtue of the Summer Festival, that does not mean Staunton is quiet the rest of the year! April 2023 will be a perfect time to come to Staunton. Enjoy complete immersion in the early classical era during a three-day Springfest, from April 21-23. In addition, Carsten Schmidt and friends present various chamber music recitals in March, May, October, and November.

WHAT ABOUT SEASON PASSES? Tickets for Spring and Fall concerts can be purchased individually or as part of the discounted Annual Pass. For details about seating sections and passes, visit Ticket Info.
