KUltura - A cultural summer in the Kaiser Mountains

"Art washes the everyday dust from your soul" - Pablo Picasso knew this and we agree with his quote. Art and culture are more than just notes, sounds and choreography. Culture is so much more: it lets us forget everyday life and the pressure of time. In Kufsteinerland, the region around the powerful Kaiser Mountains near the Austria/Bavaria border, we celebrate the summer with top-class "KUltura" events.

Tyrolean festival Erl

A must for "Wagnerians" is the already internationally famous Tyrolean festival Erl, that takes place from July 4th to 28th July 2019 under the artistic direction of maestro Gustav Kuhn, in the newly constructed and architecturally striking Festival Hall. With concerts with different orchestras, top-class chamber music evenings and various specials, the Tyrolean festival Erl in summer 2019 is a multifaceted festival season.

Operetta Summer Kufstein

This year a very famous operetta from Johann Strauss is on the programme of Operetta Summer Kufstein from 2nd to 17th August: “The Bat” (“Die Fledermaus”). The setting for this highlight is once again the historical Kufstein Fortress, which has a very special atmosphere on the operetta evenings.

Academia Vocalis

"Powerful" is a good way to describe the master classes at "Academia Vocalis". From July 26th July to 15th August they impress the audience with their singing. The Academia offers a superb stage for young, ambitious artists, who benefit from various master classes held by internationally renowned instructors with a wealth of artistic experience.

Passion plays Erl and Thiersee

The traditional passion plays have shaped the valleys community. Residents of all ages pull together as amateur actors, musicians and technicians, to bring a show to the stage that will get under your skin and leave a lasting impression. The plays are taking place every six years. Next in Erl in 2019 and in Thiersee in 2022.

Nature experience

Coupled with an authentic nature experience, the varied active programmes and the impressive panorama of the Kaiser Mountains, your days in Kufsteinerland will be a revitalizing nature & culture vacation: During the day you can enjoy a relaxing or active programme surrounded by the Tyrolean Mountains, and in the evening you can sit back and be captivated by the cultural offerings of the region.
