University Concert Series


For over 100 years, the University Concert Series has brought some of the best entertainment in the world to the MU campus to perform in front of the citizens of Columbia, students of the colleges, and visitors from literally every part of the world.


It is a proud tradition that includes names like Itzhak Perlman, The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, Bill Cosby, Smoky Robinson, and on and on.  Truly nobody brings such a diverse array of talent to the area like the University Concert Series.

And now, we have even more chances to entertain our great concert goers.  With the recent acquisition of the Missouri Theatre, the University Concert Series is in the unique and fortunate position to bring more shows, better shows, and to pair them in venues that are some of the best in the area.

During the upcoming seasons, you’ll notice a lot of great changes to the Concert Series, ones that we hope you will embrace and appreciate as we push to make our second 100 years as good as the first.
