Watch the creative process unfold by attending one of our open dress rehearsals. Available for all highlight concerts, open dress rehearsals will typically be held on the morning of each concert, and can be attended for a fee of $10.

If you’re interested in attending multiple dress rehearsals, the Open Dress Rehearsal Pass can be purchased for $50, which grants access to all open dress rehearsals during the festival.

This year, individual open dress rehearsal tickets will be sold by phone (902-429-9467) and at the door. If paying by credit or debit card at the door, you must go to the festival office (Room 401, Dalhousie Arts Centre) and purchase your ticket there. A $2 fee will apply to all credit or debit card orders.

All open dress rehearsals take place at the Joseph Strug Concert Hall, 1385 Seymour St. unless otherwise listed

Please note: there will be NO open dress rehearsals for Voice of The Weaver (Friday, May 30 concert) or the Young Artist Concert (Saturday, June 8 concert).
