Booking is now open for the 2025 London Handel Festival: Fantasy, Myth and Legend.

It is almost 50 years since the Festival was founded and we remain dedicated to celebrating the musical legacy of this great composer through our most artistically ambitious season yet. Notable highlights include a return performance by violinist and director Bjarte Eike; concerts with much-loved ensembles including the OAE, Academy of Ancient Music, and Early Opera Company; and a debut performance by the Irish Baroque Orchestra. Five previous winners of the International Handel Singing Competition will join us as soloists across the Festival.

2025 will be a hugely significant year for the London Handel Festival as we begin our new musical collaboration with Arcangelo and Jonathan Cohen. Together, they will take their first residency at the Festival and make their debut performances in their new roles as Principal Ensemble in Residence and Artistic Adviser.
