This year the Plano Symphony Orchestra is celebrating with a 40th Anniversary Season and will open this year’s festival with a special outdoor community concert on Thursday, September 22 at 7:00 p.m. The concert offers families the opportunity to enjoy the orchestra in an outdoor setting while the hot air balloons glow in the background.

The concert will include music for the entire family beginning with the “The Star Spangled Banner” and followed with pieces by Tchaikovsky, Bizet, Bernstein, and Ellington.
