Every year again: the chamber music festival in Lockenhaus.
World stars at the Lockenhaus Chamber Music Festival
”Transitus” July 10-19, 2025
The program at the Lockenhaus Chamber Music Festival is that there are no pre-made programs in advance. As an audience member, you are invited to become part of the adventure that Nicolas Altstaedt will lead you into daily from July 10-19, 2025.
So take your time to immerse yourself in the unique Lockenhaus experience, and plan several days for your stay in the heart of Europe - yet secluded from the world - amidst the forests of the Mittelburgenland in Blaufränkischland.
Designated as a cultural heritage of music by the New York Times, the Lockenhaus Chamber Music Festival offers 25 concerts over 10 days featuring chamber music at its finest. As a concert-goer, you will become part of the adventure that artistic director Nicolas Altstaedt leads the audience into daily. Therefore, you will not find pre-made concert programs in Lockenhaus in advance; they are meant to arise from the magic of the location and the composition of the attending artists. Rehearsals will take place on-site, culminating in exclusive performances in Lockenhaus. Stars like Heinz Holliger, Anneleen Lenaerts, the Kebyart Saxophone Quartet, and the Castalian String Quartet, along with all their fellow musicians, guarantee unparalleled concert experiences.
Community is highly valued in Lockenhaus
The private park of Schloss Esterházy Lockenhaus is exclusively opened for concert audiences during the Chamber Music Festival. Together with the artists, the popular regional delicacies from star chef Christian Tischler can be enjoyed at lunch and dinner buffets after the concerts.
Numerous attractive subscriptions and package deals including overnight stays at the Burghotel Schlaining guarantee a unique experience in the "Mecca of Chamber Music" in Lockenhaus.
