All members of the BFO Patrons program have the opportunity to purchase season tickets more than a week before they go on sale to the general public.
Supporters are invited to join us for several exclusive dress rehearsals and a Christmas champagne toast each year. Our Gold Supporters are invited to join the BFO on tour.
Benefactors have the opportunity to participate in receptions held in the intermissions of our concerts, in our tours and in our dinners for supporters.
Gold-level members of the Conductor’s Circle may join Iván Fischer for a toast after one of our concerts.
BFO Patrons become an integral part of the life of the BFO through meetings, tours, dinners, intimate coffee conversations and dress rehearsals: month to month, they become better acquainted with one another, the musicians of the BFO and our staff. Friendships to last a lifetime have been born at our BFO Patrons dress rehearsals, in concert intermissions and club events. Join this extraordinary community!
Without the dedication of our music-loving friends, the BFO wouldn’t be what it is today – a globally acclaimed orchestra, which is equally at home in the world’s most prestigious concert halls and Hungary’s tiniest villages. Without their support, we also would not be able to organize our educational and community programs. Join BFO Patrons today by selecting one of the membership levels.

With your support, you truly make a difference, enabling many communitites to experience the positive effects of music. Thank you!
