Let us take you behind the scenes, and afterwards, enjoy a festive evening in a stunning setting, filled with culinary delights, inspiring conversations, and a first look at the programme for the new season.

Celebrating the Season’s Close and Honouring Andreas Homoki

At the gala concert on Saturday, 5 July 2025, accompanied by a festive supporting programme, we will bid a fitting farewell to the 2024/25 season and to Andreas Homoki’s 13-year tenure as Artistic Director. On this special occasion, you can look forward to an exceptional concert featuring three world-class singers – Camilla Nylund, Klaus Florian Vogt, and Bryn Terfel – all of whom have played a significant role in shaping recent years, particularly in the Wagner repertoire. Fabio Luisi, General Music Director of the opera house from 2012 to 2021, returns to the podium to conduct the Philharmonia Zürich and the Zurich Opera Chorus.
