About Worthing Symphony Orchestra: Viennese New Year Celebration

A concert to banish the gloom of winter in a feast of uplifting tunes, the New Year concert is a lively, joyous event featuring the music of the Strauss family and their contemporaries.

From 1 December 2025, a Transaction Fee will apply to all bookings made through WTM, including online, in person, and by telephone. 

This fee helps cover the increased operational costs associated with processing bookings and maintaining our customer-focused ticketing systems. As public funding for the arts continues to decline, Transaction Fees are becoming commonplace across the UK cultural sector, allowing us to protect our programming, invest in digital improvements, and support exceptional customer service. 

As part of their members' benefits, WTM Members and Patrons will not pay a Transaction Fee. This will automatically be applied when you log into your online account. In person, please show your digital membership card to a member of the Ticketing & Sales team if purchasing your tickets at one of our Ticket & Sales Offices.
