Style and atmosphere may differ, but both summer evenings have cult status in common! The first one presents the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg and its music director with the soprano Kristine Opolais, the baritone Thomas Hampson and the Choeur de Chambre de Luxembourg on an open-air stage at the heart of the city of Luxembourg. They will create a unique, carefree atmosphere to be enjoyed by many with their family and friends. During the second event, which attracts partygoers from beyond the borders of the Grand Region, the Philharmonie will once again be transformed into a gigantic dance floor. On this night top stars of the electro scene will bring their magic to the turntables.
