May the fourth be with you
Celebrate Star Wars Day with a concert that’ll whisk you off to a galaxy far, far away – no spaceship required. Hear all your favourite music from the series, played live by an orchestra. If you think it sounds good in the cinema, just wait till you feel it in your chest.
Record breaker
The soundtrack to the original film (1977) is the best-selling symphonic album of all time. And it’s one of only a handful of scores that won every award going – Oscar, Golden Globe, Grammy and BAFTA – in it’s release year.
Join in the fun
Royal Northern Sinfonia love a bit of dressing up. You’ll spot Sith Lords, Jedi, and maybe even a Wookie in the orchestra, join in the fun and dress up as your favourite character too.
Take a listen
Watch composer and conductor John Williams and our friends at Vienna Philharmonic playing a Star Wars piece of music so memorable, you only need a couple of notes to recognise it. (Yes, that one.)
Dine just steps from the stage
Book a table in our Brasserie and enjoy a fresh Northern twist on classic British dishes. Sip exclusive drinks all night long and even save dessert for the interval.
