OF THE BELOVED GAME,

STARDEW VALLEY: SYMPHONY OF SEASONS,
OCTOBER 2, 2025

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (September 8, 2025) – Ensemble Arts Philly, in association with Mammoth, presents Stardew Valley: Symphony of Seasons at Marian Anderson Hall inside the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts on October 2, 2025, at 8:00 p.m. Curated by ConcernedApe, Symphony of Seasons features the most memorable music from the Stardew Valley game paired with a screen above the stage playing gameplay footage, plus original content created exclusively for this tour.

This magical event features a 35-piece orchestra performing the most beloved music from Stardew Valley, bringing the charming, pixelated world to life through sweeping orchestral arrangements. The concert’s multimedia experience combines powerful live music with carefully synchronized visuals, creating a truly immersive celebration of the game that has captured millions of hearts worldwide.

"Stardew Valley has created a peaceful and engaging world, not only through the game’s visual elements but also with a soundtrack that conveys pastoral charm and emotional depth," said Frances Egler, Vice President of Theatrical Programming and Presentations. “Symphony of Seasons now draws the gamer from screen to stage, with a live performance that blends the familiar and the new.”

Stardew Valley is an indie, farming simulation, role-playing game where players escape the hustle of city life to inherit and restore their grandfather's dilapidated farm. Beyond farming, players build relationships with townspeople, explore caves, fish, craft, and discover the valley's secrets across four distinct seasons. The game's heartwarming story, charming pixel art, and relaxing soundtrack have made it a global phenomenon praised for its wholesome gameplay and emotional depth.

Concert-goers will experience the changing seasons on the farm and visit iconic locations like Pelican Town, Skull Cavern, Ginger Island, Calico Desert, The Submarine, and The Wizard's Tower, all through unforgettable melodies and lush orchestration.

This concert represents a rare opportunity for fans to celebrate the cultural impact of Stardew Valley, which has sold over 20 million copies since its release. The game's creator, Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone, has personally curated the concert program to ensure an authentic and moving journey through the game's musical landscape.
