Island Signal, Island Song - Audience Survey

Thank you for being part of our Darwin Symphony Orchestra community. Whether you joined us for Island Signal, Island Song or weren’t able to attend on this occasion, we’d love to hear from you.

If you attended the concert, we invite you to share your reflections on the performance and your overall experience. If you didn’t attend, your feedback is equally valuable — it helps us better understand what influenced your decision and how we can better meet the needs of our audience.

The survey takes approximately 6–7 minutes to complete, and all responses are confidential. As a thank you for your time, all participants will be entered into a draw for a chance to win a $50 Mastercard gift voucher. Entries close Sunday 31 May 2026.

You’re welcome to share as much detail as you like in the open‑ended questions, and every response will help inform our future programming and concert experiences.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts — we truly appreciate your feedback.
