Hastings International Piano Concerto Competition

The Hastings International Piano Concerto Competition is back: 40 of the world’s best young concert pianists from 18 countries compete for a title that could launch their careers. Join us live at the White Rock Theatre and hear these extraordinary young performers as they try to convince the members of the jury that they should win the ultimate prize. Those who reach the semi-finals and finals will perform complete concertos with live orchestras: the Southbank Sinfonia for the semi-finals and the full forces of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra for the two finals.

Tickets to the first two rounds are FREE (but please book in the usual way), and there are great discounts when you book both semi-finals and finals.
