The only way to ensure that patrons will have preferred seating for Cliburn 2022—including the Final Round—is to subscribe now to the Complete Competition.
The Cliburn has announced that multiple subscription packages are now available for the sixteenth edition of its flagship Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, to be held entirely in person on June 2-18, 2022, at Bass Performance Hall and Van Cliburn Concert Hall at TCU, in Fort Worth, Texas, USA.
"There is nothing like hearing, seeing, and feeling live music in an energetic, packed concert hall," said Jacques Marquis, president and CEO of the Cliburn. "Add to that the unmatched exhilaration of being there to cheer on 30 of the world's top emerging pianists as they strive to perform their best on an enormous world stage, in hopes of launching international careers. It's been 60 years since the first notes of the Cliburn Competition were played in Fort Worth, Texas. And the world will yet again be attentively listening."
The only way to ensure that patrons will have preferred seating for Cliburn 2022-including the Final Round-is to subscribe now to the Complete Competition. It will also save patrons up to 20% off of single ticket prices-or, with the Platinum or Golden Circles, give access to exclusive amenities and events.
Their Complete Subscriptions and Preliminary, Quarterfinal, and Semifinal Round Subscriptions are on sale now. Single ticket purchases will be available in September 2021.
