The 2024-25 edition of The Cliburn’s casual alternative concert series will be held at renowned chef Tim Love’s Tannahill’s Music Hall in the historic Fort Worth Stockyards.
The series, called Cliburn Sessions, pairs classical music with a casual environment allowing classical artists to perform in a relaxed setting where they can blend genres and interact with the audience.
Tickets for individual concerts are $45 each or $150 for a table of four. Four-concert subscriptions are also available for $160. Tickets can be purchased on the Cliburn Sessions webpage.
Jacques Marquis, the Cliburn’s president and CEO lauded the new partnership with Love, the longtime Fort Worth food and entertainment icon.
“This kind of partnership is exactly what Fort Worth is about,” said Marquis said. “We are very happy to be collaborating with Tim Love and his excellent team, and we believe that Tannahill’s is the perfect new home for our Cliburn Sessions series. This also is the first time the Cliburn will produce a ticketed concert in the famed Fort Worth Stockyards. Cowboys and culture at its finest.”
