Das gab’s noch nie! Zur Eröffnung des Sommer-Festivals lädt der neue Intendant Sebastian Nordmann zur grossen Party – bei freiem Eintritt. Im Konzertsaal des KKL Luzern stimmen uns Riccardo Chailly und das fabelhafte Lucerne Festival Orchestra mit Gershwin und Bernstein, Rumba und Mambo auf eine unvergessliche Cuban Night ein. Und anschliessend können Sie direkt zum Open-Air-Konzert «Klassik für alle» auf den Europaplatz gehen.

Your visit to the Concert Hall

The world-famous Concert Hall impresses with its unique acoustics. Designed by New Yorker Russell Johnson, one of the factors responsible for the perfect sound is the optimum 1:1:2 room ratio. In addition, the 24,000 plaster reliefs break up the reflection of sound, multiply it, and scatter it in all directions.
