Muziekgebouw celebrates 20 years!

Celebrate 20 years of Muziekgebouw with today’s music

Twenty years of the Muziekgebouw! This milestone will be celebrated throughout the season. On Saturday 20 September, we are kicking off with a mini-festival: your opportunity to explore our building, our spaces and a multitude of musicians.

For this season, we have selected twenty concerts that together form a wonderful cross-section of what the Muziekgebouw stands for. The music of today in all its polyphonic splendour, recognizable by the ‘20 years Muziekgebouw’ label. For the perpetually curious.
