🎶 40 Years of the South Tyrol Festival Merano – Musical Excellence at Its Finest
Merano celebrates – and we celebrate with it!
The renowned South Tyrol Festival Merano (formerly Merano Music Weeks) celebrates its 40th anniversary this year. Since 1985, the festival has transformed the spa town into a stage for international classical music stars, fascinating sound experiments, and top-class concerts. From 26 August to 20 September 2025, music lovers can look forward to a diverse programme – just minutes away from the Schenna Resort!
✨ Music Weeks with a Special Flair
What makes the South Tyrol Festival so special is the combination of outstanding music, historic venues such as the Kursaal Merano, and South Tyrol’s unique atmosphere. In this anniversary edition, world-class orchestras meet young talents, and classical masterpieces encounter contemporary compositions.
This year, the festival is held under the motto “Building Bridges – Musically and Humanly” – a tribute to the unifying power of music in a changing Europe.
