Friends and patrons
Ranging from £50 to £15,000 per year, our membership schemes have a wide variety of benefits on offer to suit every taste.
As an OAE Friend, you can be sure to get your hands on your favourite seats with our priority booking period. You’ll also benefit from a unique insight into the inner workings of the Orchestra with regular rehearsal access. There are opportunities to meet the players and invitations to many events throughout the season.
OAE Patrons enjoy unrivalled access to our artistic activity. Involvement includes invitations to Glyndebourne dress rehearsals as well as dinner with OAE players and artists. Come on Patron trips and enjoy special insight into the artistic process behind our projects.
"I would say to anyone thinking about signing up to be a Friend or Patron of the OAE: Just do it. "
