The Taranaki Symphony Orchestra and the Taranaki Youth Orchestra have combined for this concert which will be an exciting and fantastic concert - great for the whole family.
For those who bought tickets for the previous postponed concert, your tickets and seats are still valid for the 18th. Otherwise tickets are still available from Ticketek (either at the box office or on-line).
