It’s well worth stopping by!

It’s that time again: the Elbphilharmonie opens its doors and invites you to discover exciting details of the building. In addition to interesting insights and a fantastic view over Hamburg, a varied programme awaits: music in all three concert halls of the Elbphilharmonie, technical shows in the Grand Hall, demonstrations of the organ and in-house concert grand pianos as well as hands-on instrumental workshops and short backstage tours.

Please note: On Saturday, 21 October 2023, the technical presentations and the backstage tours in the Recital Hall end at 16:00 for organisational reasons.
