Lunchtime Concerts

St Martin-in-the-Fields Lunchtime Concert Series takes place every Monday, Tuesday and Friday at 1.00pm.

 

St Martin’s has a commitment to discovering, nurturing and promoting new talent and for over sixty years the Lunchtime Concert Series has given opportunities to young musicians to perform in a professional environment in central London to an appreciative audience. Concerts feature an extraordinarily wide range of performers and repertoire. Entry is free, however, for those able to give a suggested donation of £3.50 is greatly appreciated to help fund all aspects of the work of St Martin’s.
