Mainly Mozart's 38th All-Star Festival Unites Top Orchestral Talent in San Diego

Mainly Mozart announces 38th All-Star Orchestra Festival dates for June 2026 in San Diego, featuring top musicians from leading orchestras and acclaimed soloists.

This festival matters because it represents one of the most significant classical music events in North America, bringing together elite musicians who typically perform with different orchestras throughout the year. For classical music enthusiasts, it offers a rare opportunity to hear principal players from institutions like the New York Philharmonic and Chicago Symphony collaborate in a single ensemble, creating unique musical chemistry that can't be replicated in regular season performances. The festival's impact extends beyond entertainment—it elevates San Diego's cultural standing, attracts tourism, and supports music education for hundreds of young musicians through Mainly Mozart's youth programs. In an era where classical music institutions face challenges in reaching new audiences, this festival demonstrates how innovative programming that combines beloved classics with distinctive repertoire can engage both seasoned concertgoers and newcomers to the genre.
