Uniquely groundbreaking and exhilarating to watch and hear, the London Philharmonic Orchestra has been celebrated as one of the world’s great orchestras since Sir Thomas Beecham founded it in 1932. Our mission is to create unrivalled orchestral experiences on stage and cultivate human connections beyond it, which we accomplish through live performances, online, and an extensive education and community programme, cementing our position as a leading orchestra for the 21st century. Our home is at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall, where we’re at the beating heart of London’s cultural life. You’ll also find us at our resident venues in Brighton, Eastbourne, Saffron Walden, Glyndebourne Festival Opera, and on tour worldwide. Edward Gardner has been our Principal Conductor since 2021, succeeding Vladimir Jurowski who in the same year became Conductor Emeritus. Karina Canellakis is our current Principal Guest Conductor, and Sir George Benjamin our Composer-in-Residence. We’re one of the most streamed orchestras globally, with a leading social media presence – the UK’s most followed orchestra on Instagram and the world’s most followed on TikTok. You can hear us on countless film soundtracks, and we’ve released over 140 albums on our own LPO Label, which celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2025. We’re committed to inspiring the next generation of musicians: our dynamic and wide-ranging Education and Community programme provides first musical experiences for children and families; offers creative projects and professional development opportunities for schools and teachers; inspires talented teenage instrumentalists to progress their skills; and develops the next generation of professional musicians.
