**“The Ojai Music Festival has been raising a finely calibrated ruckus each spring since 1947.”**
– *Alex Ross, The New Yorker*
I have been attending the Ojai Festival since 2009, and it's always a highlight of every year. Come on out for the 4 days, for one day, or one concert. I suggest you look for lodging ASAP, as it will become scarce and expensive the closer you get to the date. I book my AirBnB a year in advance.
**Date:** Sunday, June 11 , 2025, 3:00 to 11:00 pm
**Venue:** Libbey Bowl, Libbey Park
210 S. Signal St. Ojai, CA 93023

Salonen is renowned as both a composer and conductor. He was recently named Creative Director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, effective 2026–27, and Creativity and Innovation Chair of the Philharmonie de Paris and Principal Conductor of the Orchestre de Paris, effective 2027–28. He is the Conductor Laureate of the Philharmonia Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, and the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and formerly served as Music Director of the San Francisco Symphony. He is a faculty member at Los Angeles’s Colburn School, where he founded and directs the Negaunee Conducting Program. Salonen co-founded, and until 2018 served as the Artistic Director of, the annual Baltic Sea Festival.
**Festival History:** *[https://www.ojaifestival.org](https://www.ojaifestival.org)*
For seven decades, the Ojai Music Festival has been a laboratory for the special chemistry that results from combining insatiable curiosity with unbounded creativity. The formula is simple: Each year a music director is given the freedom and resources to imagine four days of musical brainstorming. Some have approached their task with caution, fearing that Ojai might be like other places. But, of course, it’s not. More often this unique blend of enchanted setting and an audience voracious in its appetite for challenge and discovery has inspired a distinguished series of conductors, performers, composers to push at boundaries and stretch limits.
