Proms Free Events
Every day of the Proms season you will find a free pre-concert event a stone’s throw away at Imperial College Union’s Beit Venues, offering opportunities to look deeper and learn more about the context, ideas and history behind some of the music at the Proms. The events range from talks, discussions and readings to film screenings and live recordings of favourite radio programmes. In addition, Proms Learning run a whole programme of free participatory activities for all ages.
Pre-concert events are free of charge and unticketed (seating is unreserved), with the exception of selected recordings of radio programmes and some Learning events, as detailed in the concert listings.
