The Jalisco Philharmonic Orchestra (OFJ) in its return to face-to-face concerts, has prepared a season of select works with music by great universal, Mexican and Jalisco authors, which will adorn the Degollado Theater, a venue that will open its doors, after more than a year of closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The inaugural program of this Second Season 2021 begins on Thursday 17 at 8:30 p.m. with an inaugural concert under the baton of the titular director, Jesús Medina. The presentation days will be Thursday nights and Sundays at noon.

Tickets are now available in the Ticket Master system and at the box office of the Teatro Degollado, a place that will have 300 spaces enabled, between which the distance recommended by the Health Board will be respected.

Likewise, the venue will have all the necessary protocols to safeguard the health of the attendees, who are asked to respect the recommendations of distance, use of antibacterial gel and wearing a face mask at all times.

Whoever purchases their ticket is asked to arrive 30 minutes before the concert begins, because due to the sanitary protocols for access, it will take a few minutes, which requires the patience of everyone. Once the event has started, public access will not be allowed.
