Book an individual visit & pre-audition advice session

Junior Guildhall does not provide a specific open day. We welcome visitors on most Saturdays and provide an individually tailored timetable to allow applicants to experience a typical day in the life of a Junior Guildhall student. There is no charge for prospective students to visit Junior Guildhall and attend the classes and ensembles that have been scheduled for their visit.

As part of your visit, Junior Guildhall is able to offer pre-audition advice session with specialist teachers for prospective students. This will normally be a one-to-one session but the student’s parent/carer may also attend. The teacher may offer advice on musical interpretation and technical set-up and indicate whether the students is suitable for a Junior Guildhall audition. Please note that any indication given is not a guarantee of passing an audition.

Pre-audition advice sessions are charged at the following rates: 

30 minutes - £40
40 minutes - £53.33
60 minutes - £80

For more information, and to book a visit and/or a pre-audition session, please complete this form. 

PLEASE NOTE: In light of the Covid-19, visits are currently restricted. Therefore, you will be placed on a waiting list and contacted when a visit date can be confirmed.

Come to a Junior Guildhall Concert

You are most welcome to attend any of Junior Guildhall’s concerts or productions. All events are listed on the website: gsmd.ac.uk/events
