HarzClassixFestival 2026

Classical music is a cultural asset that needs to be preserved, and the organisers of the HarzClassixFestival are committed to this principle, as they want to give young people in particular access to classical music. The special feature of this festival is the central educational approach, which consists of familiarising young people with classical music without compromising on quality and standard.

For example, pupils and students can purchase a ticket for a significantly reduced price and thus experience first-class concerts (these tickets are only available at the Bergapotheke Zellerfeld). Look forward to top-class classical music in 2026 and secure tickets in advance at Urlaubswelt Harz!

Further information will follow shortly.
