Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival

The Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival runs from late June to mid-August and includes almost 200 different events, including large-scale symphonic performances, smaller-scale chamber and choral concerts, piano and vocal recitals and even seminars.

The festival was founded in 1986 by pianist Justus Frantz, not only to showcase music, but to celebrate the region's beauty. Under this mandate, the performances at the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival take place in remote castles, mansions and historic buildings throughout the region. The music itself is equally varied and includes everything from classical to contemporary.
