Go behind the curtain of one of the world's most prestigious classical music festivals with an official guided tour of its historic performance halls.
What to expect
You'll be led into the Grosses Festspielhaus auditorium, hearing about the acoustics engineering and the roster of legendary conductors who've stood on its stage. The tour continues through rehearsal spaces and the festival's archive corridors, ending with a view from the stage itself out over empty velvet seats.
Good to know
Tours run on a fixed schedule tied to festival programming (July–August peak); confirm availability ahead of your call date, as rehearsals can close areas.
