RED EVENTS & Distribution ltd. Reviews 

4 seasons Max Richter in de Mare church in Leiden. It was amazing. 5th of june in Rotterdam then I going with my son to see it again. Goosebumps 1 hour long!!!

Neoclassical performance was amazing. The Ensemble where phenomenal and the the dancing really added to the atmosphere

Sinfonietta Bern played Myasaki's Dreams in Lausanne tonight and I was delighted.
Thank you very much for this happening and I look forward to booking again.

I attended the Howard Shore Lord of the Rings tribute with the Mystery Ensemble at Saint Luke's in Glasgow, and I had the most magical evening!

It was such a lovely experience to see such an intimate ensemble of musicians, their silent communications and observing their joy and passion for the music. The chosen pieces for the show were perfect, not a single out of place song. Also unlike other similar orchestra nights - it was ENTIRELY LOTR. Which I was so grateful for as a lot of similar productions only do about 60% of their theme, so this shows how dedicated these talented musicians are to commit to the soundtrack and give a consistent programme.

I was sobbing by the end, the music and lighting was magical, immersive and so special. I will absolutely be attending again.

Our expectations where fair but the performance and duration was below expectations. After barely annhour it was done. A total of 7 musician's. Thengrand piano was very loud, canceling the performance of the violins.
Also the chairs where uncomfortable, even though we had front row tickets.

The program was never communicated. So you are not aware that the performance would only take one hour.

I would not recommend - considering the commercial implication and the give ln Programm.

Went to a Hans Zimmer concert recently in Apeldoorn - great venue and overall time well spent!

I recently attended Hayao Miyazaki's Dreams event at St. Peter’s Church in Bournemouth, I have to say it’s one of the best live concerts I’ve seen in many years! Having been a long time follower of Hayao Miyazaki, the opportunity to hear his music live was too good to pass up. We immediately purchased VIP tickets and I have to say we were treated to a truly special experience, all the musicians were brilliant and you could see the joy on their faces while they played.

St. Peter’s Church was a perfect venue, beautiful inside and excellently lit, the staff were lovely and welcoming too.

Thank you so much for bringing a wonderful, meaningful moment to an otherwise uncertain world, you have made my year and it’s only April!

I saw the classical ghibli concert at turner sims and it was really amazing. I had a good time and pricing was reasonable

Absolutely amazing performance of Max Richter’s Vivaldi- super talented musicians, very well organised event. Incredible. Highly recommend!

Went to Interstellar: Tribute to Hans Zimmer event on 11 April at the Chester Cathedral.

Where do I begin? The promotional material clearly said the Interstellar pieces will be accompanied by the Chester Cathedral grand organ, only there to be an ELECTRIC PIANO instead.

Instead of sticking to the published tracklist, the Mystery Ensemble played 3 Interstellar pieces (played very poorly as well) and then moved on to playing Pirates of the Caribbean, Madagascar etc. Absolute scam.

The performance itself felt like I was 16 again, having a jam session with my mates - absolute amateur hour.

Left part way through. AVOID AND SAVE YOUR MONEY!

Last night’s tribute to Hans Zimmer at the Nieuwe Kerk was out of this world. Hundreds of candles, the majestic architecture of Delft, and brilliant music — the atmosphere was truly cosmic. The musicians captured every note with incredible power!

Absolutely magical performance of Richter’s Recomposition of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. The National Centre for Early Music is a wonderful venue.
The musicianship was excellent!

Attended the Mystery ensemble performance of what was described as Interstellar: tribute to Hans Zimmer, the tickets were nearly £30 each, the group was far too small, quiet & lacklustre for the venue of Chester Cathedral, we we're only midway back on the rows & it was so quiet, you could hear every chair squeak over the music, everyone looked bored, it was very mediocre, it felt like going to a school concert, that you would only enjoy if your child was playing. We left halfway, such a disappointment.

I really enjoyed the Four Seasons by Vivaldi concert in Sion. The atmosphere and the musicians were wonderful.

I went to see Hayao Miyazaki's Dreams and while it was my first concert experience, Mystery Ensemble did not disappoint.

Their renditions of Joe Hisaishi's pieces were an absolute delight to listen to and struck a chord within me. It is definitely a core memory and an unforgettable experience.

Everyone in the room seemed to really enjoy it and Mystery Ensemble set a really beautiful atmosphere. I hope they come back to Bournemouth I'm sure many people would love to listen again.

Thank you Mystery Ensemble :)

I've just got back from the Mystery Ensemble's performance of Howard Shore's music from the Lord of the Rings at Stoke Minster. This was marketed very professionally and cost £35 per ticket. Unfortunately the musicians were very amateurish. There were tuning issues throughout, numerous mistakes, a lack of dynamics and the performance was very stilted, with the commentary between pieces frankly woeful.

Having looked into the "Mystery Ensemble" since getting home, it appears different musicians are used at each event, which explains why it felt cobbled together and why it lacked any real energy. I wonder how much these musicians had actually rehearsed together. I feel a bit scammed to be honest. This would have been passable for a school performance and had I paid £5 I would have been happy, but the quality of musicianship was severely lacking at this price point.

The performance was first class. My only complaint is that there was no information about the players or the background to the piece.

I attended the “Tribute to Howard Shore” concert at Durham Cathedral on 13 March 2026 and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience.

We purchased three Zone A tickets (over £36 each) specifically to have a good view of the performance. However, when we arrived, we were told there were no seats available in Zone A. We were left standing for around 15–20 minutes while staff tried to resolve the issue, during which time the concert actually began.

We were eventually seated behind a pillar in what appeared to be a restricted-view area, meaning we could barely see the musicians at all. This was despite paying for premium seating. Please also note, the “orchestra” advertised was 5 string instruments and a piano.

The situation was very poorly handled on the night, and what should have been a special evening was overshadowed by the organisation and seating issues. The volunteers at the cathedral told us they always oversell their events. Someone representing red events dismissed us as we stood waiting as he stated we weren’t VIP and he was “already dealing with someone else”.

Since the event, I have sent two emails to Red Events and received no response. I was also asked to contact them via Instagram but have not received any reply there either.

Overall, this felt like an oversold and poorly organised event, with very poor customer service afterwards. I would not book with this organiser again.

UPDATE:
Following the reply to my review, which states I contacted on a weekend, I would just like to add that I initially emailed Red events on the 15/03/26, and whilst yes this was a Sunday, there has been 7 working days since and I still have not had a response. I sent a second email on 20/03/26 at 11:42 (a working day) which again, I have no received a response to. On the 20th, I also commented on the Instagram to hopefully get a response, to which they replied to my comment on Sunday 22nd and asked me to direct message them, which I did the same day. I left my review yesterday evening 23/03/26 as another working day had passed and I had again heard nothing. I do not appreciate the tone as the company has had ample time to respond to me. I should not have even had to reach out on Instagram (which I did on the Friday and THEY responded on the Sunday).

26/03/26 update:
I have checked my email and spam and am unable to find any correspondence from Red Events. I have only been contacted on Instagram and trust pilot to say I will be contacted. Please advise on the email that has been used to contact me.

Absolutely love watching these multitalented musicians play and would love to see more events to attend real soon, they make my time comin more magical, sending so much love & appreciation to all that they do always 💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚🌹

Really enjoyed the Lord Of The Rings performance at Southwark Cathedral. Sat right at the front. Very beautifully played!!
Would love to go again!
Extremely friendly staff🩵
