WNO’s world-class orchestra has been delighting audiences across the UK for over 50 years. Having covered over 160,000 miles, our trailer is no longer fit for purpose. Your support will help us secure a new, high spec and environmentally efficient trailer, keeping us on the road for decades to come.

Our orchestra trailer is vital to our touring model. For 20 years it has enabled WNO to take live orchestral music to audiences internationally, and to communities across the length and breadth of the UK. However, having covered around 8,000 miles annually, our orchestra trailer is no longer fit for purpose. Its age means that our instruments are at risk of damage through the potential failure of temperature control equipment and the unit does not meet our current environmental standards.
To replace our current unit with a bespoke, high-spec trailer which will future proof our touring model, better protect our instruments and reduce our carbon footprint. The new trailer will include a state of the art ‘fridge unit’, ensuring all orchestral instruments are safely kept at the correct temperature and will remove the need for a second trailer (currently required). It will use bio-fuel in transit and an electrical hook up at venues, reducing costs to WNO and our environmental impact.
