Festspielhaus Review

Beautiful festival hall in the city center. A visit to the theater is worthwhile.

Great location, the old train station was well converted

Fantastic. It is always an experience when you're in Baden-Baden. The Festspielhaus has excellent acoustics. The entrance area in the converted former station is very elegant. There is also a restaurant. At the former ticket booth is the box office. Parking garage is available.

Largest festival house in Germany .. and then still privately financed !!! Only by donations and entrance fees. A great theater, Easter Pentecost and Winter Festival are always an experience with great new staging and international ballet companies. International orchestras and soloists. Great acoustics. Large parking garage directly on the premises. Very good service, also in the breaks and restaurants. Kurpark and Trinkhalle nearby. To the city center about 15-20 minutes on foot.Easy to visit ...

Very beautiful building. The concert hall could be a little more inclined.

Row 7 bad view because not increased.
Also not good acoustics there

A terrific performance. For me as a layman of classical music it was simply breathtaking what people can conjure up through practice with musical instruments.

While the French pseudo-cultural horrors cost us a crazy dough, Baden Baden gets a festival palace funded now without any public endowment. The neo-Renaissance building is simply magnificent with a monumental hall to play operas and concerts. All in the old station of the spa on art nouveau background.

Nice location and the best of the best talents all over the world, worth to visit

A beautiful building, which harmoniously integrates the former city station - old and modern in a successful synthesis. If one does not know this background as Ortsunkundiger and Erstbesucher, then one waits inadvertently actually in the station, if one stands suddenly before the "ticket office".
According to the large and generously designed place one expects high-quality Auffuehrungen. My expectations were even exceeded here in the case of the musical "Evita". An unforgettable evening, whose music and stage pictures still worked for days.

Great house Friendly staff, interesting program and everything is very well organized. Worth a visit.

Great acoustics, nice ambience, main entrance with historical cash register of the former old railway station. Friendly service.

The program is excellent. As a permanent guest, I've never been disappointed since it opened. The musicians and dancers are world class. The crowd is enthusiastic and knowledgeable, the atmosphere is excellent. The house is spacious, bright and friendly, and the acoustics are excellent in almost every seat.
Due to the pandemic, cards can currently only be given to 500 guests.
On Thursday, October 8th, after 7 months, the restart finally took place under Corona security conditions, i.e. Wear a mask to the seat, short temperature check at the entrance, large safety distances and no break. You can get drinks before the event, the Aida restaurant was open at long intervals, you always felt completely safe.
The Hamburg Ballet under John Neumeier showed the ballet "Ghostlight", specially developed for the conditions of the pandemic, which reflected the current atmosphere. It was a great and fascinating ballet evening! The house is finally alive again!

This house is just great. Privately funded! You have to see that and support it. Tour is possible with guidance and is required.! Thank you very much

The Festspielhaus is unique - very good seats, very good, selected artists, very good program, in short everything is just right! At the end of the performance - every lady gets a beautiful rose. A visit is always worthwhile.

We come to concerts. The former station of Baden-Baden has been renovated very beautiful and worth seeing. The acoustics in the concert hall are only just acceptable.

Great premiere of Orpheus and Eurydice .... great free entertainment at its finest ... great evening ...

Good service and unforgettable spectacular experience.

Great acoustics, great building. Gladly anytime again

Very nice hall, great performance only the drink prices are really exaggerated

Sound from the concert was great.
Ambience ..., well.
Not mine.
Too sober ...
The beautiful chandelier doesn't help either ...

It was a wonderful evening! Classical music is simply an asset! And in this festive setting ... always happy :)

The building alone is worth seeing. The entrance area is sensational

Very good sound in the hall. Mega concert by Alma and her sister.

Fantastic concert

But the environment is right too! Very friendly service staff, whether at the cloakroom or in the bar or in the hall. Top!
And the food in the AIDA restaurant was, as always, very good. A nice mood for a fantastic concert evening. I am looking forward to the next visit.
Oh yes, hardly need to point out that everything is barrier-free

Great concert location! Class acoustics, very good seats !!

It is a magical place, steeped in history and impressive by the symbolism, prestige and heritage since the time of the Romans who had already made Baden Baden an important city.
The Festspielhaus is therefore the casino of the city. There is, attached, a restaurant of great quality, very large and beautiful rooms with impressive high ceilings.
We will also find a paying underground parking but very well placed. This one gives direct access to the restaurant and the casino in being wet if it ever rains.
The place is really worth seeing

Toccarion - a very nice guide not only for children

A great place
The staff are very very friendly.

During its long existence, it was the favorite place of residence of politicians, artists or descendants of the missing dynasties. The Castle of the Festival (Festspielhaus) deserves a place of honor among the city's landmarks. This beautiful building has housed two important cultural institutions under its roof: a concert hall and an opera house and is the largest of its kind in Germany. Another well-known landmark is Stifkirche, a true gem of the late Gothic. The statue of Ludwig Wilhelm complements the beauty of the entrance to the temple. Among the archeological monuments the most significant is the New Castle, built in 1479. No less beautiful is the Evangelical Church in the center, on Augustplac

One of the most beautiful concert halls in southern Germany

Always happy there. Friendly staff. Good acoustics only if no tape is played.

Nice venue, modern and with good view and acoustics. We were there as part of the SWR3 New Pop Festival.

Old train station ! Very nice conversion for an opera house all with an exceptional restaurant!

Baden Baden is something for the soul. Nevertheless the Festspielhaus and yesterday Diana Damrau and her husband x

The technical staff is highly qualified, responsive. Therefore, the quality of performances, concerts and shows is always on top.

Everything fine - just watch where you stand when parking - can take a long time after the exit after e.g. B. a musical

Super location. But is a bit further away with the car parking than in the TG next door.

..simply the largest festival hall in Germany .. that says it all .. great musical offers .. great atmosphere .. very good service .. never experienced in a festival hall .. free introduction to the performances on offer .. large parking garage .. Elegant restaurant .. Just drop by and enjoy ..

Seats too narrow and bad air, you shouldn't think for Baden-Baden.

The largest, probably the most beautiful and definitely the most expensive opera house in Germany.

The Festspielhaus is an experience without equal. Not only the
best stars give everything here, the frame of this famous house reflects this city with a unique flair.

Splendid old building adapted for Concerts and Opera performances. It has some services and is functional, the sound is good and the billboard, in constant renovation, with very interesting works. The building is worth visiting, regarding the works represented as well, but you are a matter of taste. Highly recommended.

Concerts, opera, ballet, it's always a pleasure on a high level, this Baden-Baden Festival Hall! - and actually it starts at the entrance control by friendly faces, which are called a welcome.

We were in the Festspielhaus at the dirty dancing musical, the arrival was not good, traffic jams immediately after the highway and in the parking garage Festspielhaus not better either, but in the Festspielhaus we were super satisfied

Great location for musical, sparkling wine orange costs as much as sparkling wine (?), Parking lot situation poorly signposted

Relatively easy to reach. Parking garage right there. Wonderful ambience.
