Out at the Symphony continues with a twist! Instead of our typical post-concert receptions, join us for a pre-concert drag brunch featuring four local Wisconsin drag queens in Overture Hall’s Upper Lobby. Meet musicians of the MSO, eat, drink, and see some incredible performances! Tickets are $55 and include a Circle-level concert ticket and pre-concert event access with food and drink tickets provided. Or, if you’ve already purchased concert tickets, event-only tickets are $35! Either way, please RSVP by Sunday, April 28th!
Attend the event and concert for $55 dollars, or if you’ve already purchased tickets to the concert, $35 will grant you event entry!
We ask you to please bring cash to tip the queens performing. We are paying each of the queens to perform, but it is proper etiquette to tip at Drag Brunches. We will have small bills on hand to help with giving change but encourage you to acquire smaller bills/cash prior to the event. Click here to learn more.
If you purchase the $55 package, you get a $20 discounted circle-level seat for the concert prior to the event. At the event, you are invited to the Overture Center’s Upper Lobby for drag performances with food provided as well as two drink tickets. You will have the opportunity to meet musicians of the Madison Symphony, our guest artists, and other members of the community who share similar interests.
