Current concerts & live music in Hamburg

Hamburg's live music scene is inexhaustible and versatile: international stars fill the big concert halls, renowned orchestras perform on traditional and modern stages at the highest level of sound, established singers and (as yet!) unknown newcomers from a wide variety of musical genres present themselves in clubs and bars as well as at countless festivals. In short, from musical theatre and classical music to hip gigs in trendy neighbourhoods and cultural festivals, Hamburg has it all.
