LPO Benefit Concert 2025
Thank you for making our Benefit Concert a success!
Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra’s 2025 Benefit Concert
A Tribute to Ellis Marsalis Jr.
Saturday, September 6, 2025 | Orpheum Theater
On Saturday, September 6, 2025, nearly 1,200 community members joined us at the Orpheum Theater for a powerful evening. Together, we celebrated the spirit and legacy of New Orleans and music icon Ellis Marsalis, Jr.
Thanks to your generosity, we raised $156,500 to support the LPO’s mission and programs!
These proceeds will directly fund vital education and community engagement initiatives like the LPO Academy and Musical Storytimes, which bring the joy of music to thousands of students and families across our region each year.
We are deeply grateful to our sponsors, partners, and attendees who made this special evening possible. Your support ensures that the music and culture of New Orleans continue to inspire generations to come.
