Newport Music Festival

The Newport Music Festival is having its 40th anniversary season July 11-July 27. There are a total of 60 concerts being held over the 17 days with 35 different artists from around the globe. You will be able to see concerts ranging from an eleven year-old pianist to a world-renowned trumpeter. All of these concerts are held in the famous Newport Mansions. 

The morning concerts are usually held at 11 am, afternoon concerts are usually at 4 pm or 6 pm, and evening concerts are at 9 pm at the Breakers. While most of the concerts are held in the day, there are also two Midnight Concerts at Marble House. Tickets are $25. If you aren’t a night owl, there are also “Box Lunch Concerts.” Morning concerts are at 11 am followed by lunch around 1 pm. The optional lunch begins at 1 pm prior to the afternoon concert at 2 pm. The boxed lunches are included in the price of your ticket for mornings and are optional for the 2 pm concerts. During the seventeen days, there are four box lunch concerts at Belle Mer Salon on Goat Island. Tickets cost $45 per person for the mornings and $35 (without lunch) and $45 (with lunch) for afternoons.

On Wednesday July 23rd, there is a Gala at The Breakers Mansion. The evening begins at 7 p.m. with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres on the Terrace of the Breakers. The performance is the North American Debut performance by Icelandic superstar tenor Garðar Thór Cortes at 8 pm. There is an après-concert reception to meet the artist with coffee and desserts to finish off the night. Tickets are $100 per person, a portion of which is tax deductible.

There are two concert series:

The “Amo, Amas, Amadeus” Series where you can hear all 18 of Mozart’s piano sonatas preformed from memory by German pianist Michael Endres, in a series of five concerts. Tickets are $100.
The Victor Borge Composer Series in honor of legendary Entertainer Victor Borge. The Festival will present 17 afternoon concerts featuring handpicked selections from many of music’s greatest composers.
