Festspielhaus Baden-Baden
The Baden-Baden Festival Theatre is Germany's largest opera house and concert hall with a capacity of 2,500 seats.
Opened on April 18, 1998, the building's architecture includes the former central train station of Baden-Baden which, today, is the ticket sales hall and the Festspielhaus’ restaurant "Aida".
Planned from the beginning as a privately financed cultural enterprise, the conversion to Europe's first opera and concert project to operate without public subsidy succeeded following the initial public start-up financing. Since March 2000, Festspielhaus Baden-Baden's private cultural foundation holds the responsibility for the house's business operations. Ticket sales, donations and sponsoring have enabled the theatre to operate privately without public subsidies since early 2002.
Festspielhaus Baden-Baden's program is organized around four annual festival periods spread throughout the year. The Whitsun, Summer, Autumn and Winter Festivals each include at least one opera performance and several classical concerts. Well-known ballet companies make guest appearances three to four times per year with entertainment shows completing the rest of the program. Each year, the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden cultural foundation awards the Herbert von Karajan Music Prize to a famous international musician. The award includes €50,000, money that must be used by the winner to support young musicians.
This theatre is provided with hydraulically operated pit, large enough to accommodate a fully staffed Ring production, and full opera staging facilities with its own workshops. With an ideal acoustics that can give intimacy even to instrumental solo recitals, the Festspielhaus further increased its popularity with many of the most highly reputed orchestras, singers and instrumentalists of world renown.
