Q: Is there a dress code at Symphony concerts?
A: No there is not, unless the concert is a gala special event. Casual attire is acceptable within the limits of cleanliness and propriety. Getting all gussied up for a big night out with that special someone can be great fun!

If the Vancouver Symphony crowd is anything like the Toronto crowd, if you wear a suit, I can tell you you will likely be only one of a handful wearing one. After having not attended a Toronto performance in many years, I went last year and felt overdressed in dress shirt/dress pants compared to the others in attendance. I wouldn't exactly show up in a track suit, but even jeans and a button-up shirt should be fine.

I know what you mean. We dressed up fairly nicely and were very out of place. I was able to put my blazer in the car and she wore a simple black dress but there were people there in jeans and t-shirts. I was very taken aback by it. Went to a gala event though and everyone there was dressed much nicer.

They are also playing Brahms' no. 1. One of his best. If they are having trouble selling this program, they must be really hurting in attendance.

Thanks OP, in for 2. Always wanted to go, really looking forward to this!

Sybil: You could have had them both done by now if you hadn't spent the whole morning skulking in there listening to that racket.
Basil: Racket? That's Brahms! Brahms' Third Racket!
Basil: Well, may I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically -?

Thanks OP. We've been a couple of times in the past and enjoyed it very much.

Just curious as to how to obtain codes like this in the future? Is it as simple as signing up on their mailing list?

Tempted. But I resisted since I am not a classical music fan and will probably fall asleep.
Best shopping deals I got from here:
Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom $300, ZTE Blade V8 Pro $175, Fluld 55' 4k TV $360

Yea I'm just on their email list, but I don't recall ever seeing such a good promo before.

Dress circle is the best but it's excluded from this promo. Otherwise it's like any other theatre seating.

Here also are 360 degree views of the Orpheum:
