The Bay Phil presents the most imaginative and entertaining shows that will amaze audiences from the beautiful Bay Area and beyond. Since 1964, the Bay Philharmonic (formerly Fremont Symphony) has delighted Bay Area residents, adding to their quality of life, sharing joy and building harmony. Mission: Enrich the Soul. Inspire the Mind. Delight the Senses. Philharmonic means "love of harmony." Bay Philharmonic, also known as Bay Phil, is a source of harmony and diverse co-existence for the region. We bring communities together and improve residents' quality of life through a shared, transportive performing arts experience. Three to four times a year in Hayward, Bay Philharmonic presents performance-packed shows honoring the area's diverse cultures and creating a feeling of belonging. Its our purpose to serve: We deliver these events in an affordable, relatable, and accessible way, breaking down walls separating us and touching peoples hearts. We believe experiencing the joy of the performing arts should not just be a privilege, but an individual right.
