Patronage - YOUR way of supporting US!

We invite you to become a Patron of Preston Symphony Orchestra.

Patronage is not just about you supporting us and “giving us money” it’s about a partnership between us!

We would offer our Patrons a closer involvement with the orchestra and a number of privileges throughout the year (including, for Gold Patrons, a personal invitation to one of our rehearsals, so you can see for yourself the amount of work that goes on behind the scenes to produce a concert). 

All Patrons’ names would appear in our concert programmes in recognition of your support you would be entitled to free tickets for concerts!

There are two levels of Patronage that we invite you to consider:

SILVER PATRON

You can join the list of Silver Patrons.

• As a thank you for your support your name would appear in our concert programmes for the year 
• You would be entitled to TWO free tickets for one of our concerts and a complimentary programme. 

The cost of this package is £75.00 per year.

GOLD PATRON

Are you keen to help the Orchestra in its charitable and educational work in the community and in helping us secure the future of the orchestra? 

You could do this by becoming a Gold Patron.

• As a thank you for your support your name would appear in our concert programmes for the year
• You would be entitled to TWO free tickets for TWO concerts throughout the year and a complimentary programme for each concert.
• You would receive an invitation to an open rehearsal where you can get an insight into how an orchestra works and how it improves during the rehearsal session.

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

There are two categories in the Patronage Scheme -
