Concert halls Freiburg Im Breisgau

For music lovers of all kinds, the Jazzhaus is Freiburg's must-see music venue. Open since 1987, it's located near Freiburg station in a former wine cellar, said to be one of the city's most beautiful. A landmark of Freiburg's nightlife, it welcomes you almost every evening for a variety of concerts. And there's something for everyone: jazz, of course, but also blues, soul, pop and rock. Supported by a public-private partnership, it was awarded the "Spielstättenprogrammpreis Rock, Pop, Jazz" in 2013 for its high-quality cultural program and its contribution to German cultural life. The venue organizes over 250 concerts a year, attracting bands from all over the world and an equally diverse audience. From international stars to up-and-coming bands, the atmosphere is one of diversity and discovery. It can also be privatized for receptions, weddings, birthdays and other events.

The cultural center takes its name from the building in which it is housed, a former power station with typical 1900s architecture. Founded in 1989, the association now has around a hundred members. The center hosts over 400 performances in the fields of dance, theater, music and visual arts. From small local projects to large international troupes, diversity and multiculturalism are the order of the day. A champion of a young, innovative cultural scene, the venue is also home to numerous artists, with 30 permanent workshops, the Bewegungs-art für Neuen Tanz dance school, the Fribourg theater school, the Jazz & Rock school, the "Die Schönen" musical theater, and more recently the Südufer. If you're on a tight budget, you'll find that many services are free of charge, thanks to the unstinting support of the City of Freiburg and the State of Baden-Württemberg.
