Don’t miss out—get tickets!
As the only professional orchestra in Gainesville, we strive to provide highly engaging, excellent, and varied live orchestral concerts to our city’s growing population.
The Gainesville Orchestra has been part of the cultural vitality of Alachua County for more than four decades. We remain committed to enriching Gainesville’s cultural landscape through our regular season performances and expanding community outreach initiatives.
Each year, ticket sales cover only a portion of our operating costs. Donations are essential to ensure that we can continue offering the level of artistic excellence and variety our audiences have come to expect from the orchestra.
While some of our work is covered by ticket sales, this makes up only a small portion of our overall funding. Most of our income comes from advertisements, grants, and the generosity of our donors. With grant funding being cut in recent years, donations—now more than ever—are vital to the ongoing success of our mission and ensure that we can continue to bring music throughout Gainesville.
At The Gainesville Orchestra, our mission is to enrich, educate, and inspire our community through high-quality orchestral performances that bring both traditional and contemporary music to audiences across Alachua County and surrounding areas.
