Festival

Lucerne Summer Festival 2026

The Lucerne Summer Festival 2026 invites you into a world where music becomes a landscape — refined, luminous, and deeply human. Set on the shores of Lake Lucerne and framed by the Swiss Alps, this extraordinary festival unfolds from August 13 to September 13, 2026, transforming the city into one of the most important centers of classical music in the world.

Programme
Hans Werner Henze: Sinfonia No. 9 for mixed Choir and Orchestra
Overview

A nearly hour-long Ninth Symphony with chorus and large orchestra: who wouldn’t think of Beethoven? But, “instead of praising joy, that beautiful spark of the gods” — to quote the Schiller line Beethoven sets in his Ninth — Henze said that in his Sinfonia N. 9 he evokes “a world of horror and persecution that continues to cast its shadow.”

The work is based on Anna Seghers’s great anti-fascist novel The Seventh Cross: seven prisoners escape from a concentration camp in Nazi Germany, and only one of them manages to reach freedom. With gripping intensity and deep empathy, Henze traces the fugitives’ terror and the brutality of their pursuers — “an apotheosis of the terrible and the painful,” and at the same time “an expression of the greatest reverence for the people who resisted during the era of Nazi-fascist terror.” With Henze’s harrowing confession in sound, the Konzerthausorchester Berlin and its acclaimed Chief Conductor Joana Mallwitz make their Lucerne Festival debut. And since Joana Mallwitz is not only a thrilling maestra but also a gifted communicator, she will introduce the symphony herself at the start of the concert.

Venue Info

KKL Luzern - Lucerne
Location   Europaplatz 1

KKL Luzern’s spectacular architecture designed by Pritzker Prize winner Jean Nouvel and the quality of its facilities set this venue apart from more traditional culture and convention centres. Its trade-mark is the common theme of culture, conferences and culinary choices – the complete experience orchestrated under the famous roof. The building is situated in the heart of Switzerland, only one hour by train from Zurich Airport, within walking distance of Lucerne’s finest hotels and a few sheltered steps from the international railway station. It is the perfect venue for your next premium event, such as product launches, anniversary celebrations and award ceremonies, high-profile meetings, receptions and banquets.

Concert Hall
The showpiece of the KKL Luzern is its renowned Concert Hall with 1,898 seats and acoustics that provide incredible sound and inspire the world’s leading conductors, orchestras and soloists to perform at their best.

Conventions
The outstanding Concert Hall with its multifunctional usage, is also an exciting possibility for conventions. A wide screen is hidden above the stage and may be lowered for awards, product presentations and other events. Interpreting booths and excellent infrastructure are at hand for a most memorable convention or meeting or live television broadcast.

Two water canals frame the Lucerne Hall, a venue that is also unique in its adaptability and convertible for 200 up to 1,800 guests. It can be used for a variety of settings including product presentations, congresses, concerts and banquets. With its appropriate audiovisual facilities, variable height staging and mobile rostrum, all combined with the deliberately simple design of the hall, the organizer will find creative freedom to style the event.

The Auditorium for up to 271 listeners, too, is equipped with state-of-the-art congress installations and, like the Lucerne Hall, provides an attractive setting for conferences. Event organizers are also increasingly discovering the Crystal Lounge, the attractive meeting point in the KKL Luzern. It boasts an oval-shaped bar that can be moved around the space, allowing for maximum flexibility and turning the lounge into a premier events venue.

Culinary experiences
The cuisine facilities of the KKL Luzern offer organizers and guests all kinds of catering options and total culinary experiences. Packages and offers – such as refreshing time-outs, cocktail receptions for networking, stand-up lunches, seated dinners or exclusive lounge experiences – can be tailored to the organizer’s specific needs.
