Lucerne Festival

Zurich has been supporting the LUCERNE FESTIVAL since 1990 and since then has pursued the goal of making classical music accessible to a wide audience. The festival has meanwhile become one of the world’s most important platforms for classical music and now ranks among the “Top Events of Switzerland”.

Summer Festival

Zurich has been the main sponsor of the summer festival since 2005. Zurich is convinced that a flourishing artistic and cultural environment plays a major role in the life of a society. This attitude underlies Zurich's desire to promote outstanding artists and make classical and contemporary music accessible to a wide audience.

This goal is underscored by the free concert series "40min". Since 2021, Zurich has also been involved as a founding partner of "Music for Future", which focuses on upcoming artists and the audience generation of tomorrow.
