What can I do to help Tanglewood?

What can I do to help Tanglewood while live performances cannot take place?

As a nonprofit, the Tanglewood relies on revenue from ticket sales, which covers nearly half of our budget. With more than a year’s worth of Tanglewood, BSO, and Boston Pops concert cancellations, the impact on the BSO and Tanglewood is significant. You can help support Tanglewood by joining the Friends of Tanglewood today. Your philanthropic contribution is needed now more than ever.

And, as a donor of $100 or more, you will receive access to the full series of our new BSO NOW programs as our thanks for your generosity. Friends of Tanglewood can enjoy the recorded hour-long video programs including Boston Symphony and Boston Pops musicians in orchestral and chamber music, along with behind-the-scenes storytelling with conductors, composers, and musicians, plus Holiday Pops, youth concerts, and much more.

Give today to ensure that the music keeps playing, online for now, in in person when the time is right.

Thank you.

About us

Hailed as America’s premier summer music festival, Tanglewood traditionally offers a sublime experience of musical performances and learning amidst the pastoral beauty of the Berkshire Hills. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Tanglewood transformed to share music through the Tanglewood 2020 Online Festival. Offerings included dozens of concerts featuring the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Fellows from The Tanglewood Music Center, and some of the world’s greatest performers, while the Tanglewood Learning Institute continued its engaging programs for curious minds to inspire dialogue and deepen understanding of music, the arts, and the human spirit. With your support, Tanglewood can continue to share its world-class programs each summer, both in the Berkshires and beyond.
