Ring in the New Year with a grand celebration! Pre-concert entertainment begins at 8pm.

We’ll supply the music, the masks, and the bubbly—you create the lasting memories! Start with a magical concert of music including operettas, waltzes with costumed dancers, and thrilling visual displays. Your evening continues with non-stop music in the lobbies, complimentary champagne and desserts, plus our traditional balloon drop at the stroke of midnight! Then, sing along to Auld Lang Syne and dance the night away on the gorgeous stage at Davies Symphony Hall. This promises to be a great party for you and your companions, done up as only the San Francisco Symphony can do!

A superb roster of guests brings special panache to our New Year’s Eve concert. Bramwell Tovey, principal guest conductor of the famed Hollywood Bowl, is on the podium for a program of cheery waltzes and polkas. Audience favorite tenor Alfie Boe offers sparkling selections from Viennese operettas, and 15-year-old violin prodigy Chad Hoopes—seen on The Early Show and NPR’s From the Top—will dazzle listeners with his musical fireworks. Budding star soprano Layla Claire also sings with the Orchestra. After the concert, don’t miss dancing with the Peter Mintun Orchestra and a San Francisco favorite, 80s cover band Tainted Love.

Following the concert, enjoy party favors, complimentary champagne, savories, and desserts. Dance the night away on stage in Davies Symphony Hall or in the First Tier. When the clock strikes midnight, 2010 balloons will cascade down from above.

For details on special dinner packages, please call the Box Office at (415) 864-6000.
