SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Symphony is pushing back until next year its return to Copley Symphony Hall at Jacobs Music Center, where the orchestra had been scheduled to open its 2023/2024 Jacobs Masterworks concert series on Nov. 4.
The reasons for the delay are being attributed to unexpected construction and redesign challenges that have emerged as the nearly 100-year-old hall undergoes a $125 million renovation.
Several of the November concerts scheduled for Copley Symphony Hall as part of the statewide California Festival will now be held at The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, the orchestra’s outdoor venue alongside San Diego Bay. Some subsequent concerts are being pushed back until the orchestra resumes its indoor concerts next year.
