Palladium Chamber Series

The Music Continues: Announcing the 2026 – 27 Season

While the Palladium at SPC undergoes its historic renovation, the Palladium Chamber Series continues with five extraordinary concerts at the Music Center on St. Petersburg College’s Gibbs Campus.

The season brings together beloved Palladium Chamber Players musicians, returning favorites, and distinguished guest artists for intimate performances of great classical repertoire – from Mozart and Brahms, to Gershwin, Mendelssohn, and more.

St. Petersburg/Gibbs Campus Music Center: While the Palladium is temporarily closed for renovation, we are committed to keeping this beloved series alive for our patrons, musicians, and community. The Music Center offers a beautiful setting for chamber music, with wonderful acoustics, two Steinway pianos, an intimate audience experience, and ample free parking.
