Experience The Philharmonic Brass live on December 17th

The Philharmonic Brass will perform at The Haymarket, Basingstoke on December 17th, 2026. The ensemble is a professional brass quintet known for delivering dynamic and varied performances encompassing classical arrangements, jazz standards, and original compositions. Their repertoire frequently features both traditional brass ensemble works and pieces transcribed from orchestral and operatic sources, often incorporating a degree of theatricality and audience engagement.

The Haymarket is Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council’s flagship arts centre. Opened in 1975, it functions as a multi-purpose venue hosting a diverse programme including theatre, dance, music, comedy, film and community events. Originally conceived as a replacement for the town's older theatre, the building underwent a significant refurbishment and extension completed in 2014. This renovation expanded the auditorium capacity and improved accessibility alongside upgrades to technical facilities. The Haymarket plays a key role in the cultural life of Basingstoke, serving both as a receiving house for touring productions and a platform for local artistic groups. It is located centrally within Basingstoke town centre.
