About

This season's live-to-film performance of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back has unfortunately been cancelled, but Sarasota Orchestra's sights are set on bringing this crowd favorite back to audiences early in the 2025-2026 season. Ticket holders may complete this webform to request a ticket exchange for another perfomance this season, receive a full refund, or donate their tickets.

Audiences could not stop raving about last season’s symphonic screenings of Star Wars: A New Hope! Well, it’s time to dust off those Darth Vader helmets again as Sarasota Orchestra presents Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back live in concert, with the full Orchestra playing John Williams’ extraordinary music and the iconic film on the big screen. Tickets sell out quickly, so don’t wait to secure your seats for the best show in the galaxy!
