Come join the Young Audience Scheme and enjoy all these exclusive activities and benefits!

What is it?
The HKPO’s Young Audience Scheme (YAS) is your way to find out more about your orchestra. For a small annual fee, you get access to special ticket discounts and offers, free events, and reduced prices from participating merchants – and you get to know more about the HKPO and good music too!

Who is Eligible?
If you’re a full time student aged between 6 and 18 years of age, then you’re eligible for membership of one of the best clubs in Hong Kong. The YAS offers you exclusive access to your orchestra. In 2011 we celebrate 15 years of the scheme. Keep reading to find out about what we offer!
