For everyone

Mozart? In Würzburg a festival for everyone

The Mozartfest is not an elitist occasion, but a platform for encounters through music. Here, bridges are built – into the midst of society. Music can reach everyone is the conviction; participation is the keyword.

Every year a multi-facetted programme of more than 80 concerts and events attract around 30,000 visitors to Würzburg. Everyone is welcome. The only requirement: curiosity and openness to be enthused by music. Innovative formats, special children’s concerts and events for the whole family are just as much a part of the festival’s diary as the traditional Mozarttag.

The M Pop-Up offers a temporary Raum für Mozart in a city-centre store. Featuring open rehearsals, concerts and talks, it allows artists to experiment and provides space for encounting, discovering and exchanging thoughts.

Mozart comes to Würzburg – and is given a very warm welcome. On Mozarttag, music is played in the city’s squares, lanes and churches, in commercial buildings, even above Würzburg’s roofs. Many stages offer space for Mozart and more. Artists and ensembles from the entire region take part in this event, turning Würzburg’s city centre into a multi-facetted open-air concert hall.
