Open Piano Luzern 2026

From August 7 to 23, 2026, IG Musikstadt Luzern will host “Open Piano” for the third time. Over a total of nine days—each from Friday to Sunday—Jesuitenplatz will be transformed into an open stage for everyone. A concert grand piano, freely accessible to the public, will be available daily from 2:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Play, listen, linger: music comes to life in public spaces and brings people together in a relaxed atmosphere.

The event is open to everyone—regardless of age, background, or musical experience. Whether a child is discovering their first notes, a senior is playing again after a long hiatus, or a professional musician spontaneously performs a piece: everyone is welcome. The focus is not on perfection, but on the joy of sharing a musical experience together.

New for 2026: Thanks to a partnership with the Lake
Lucerne Shipping Company, there will be an alternate location at Landing Bridge 2 in case of bad weather. This makes the Open Piano weather-independent for the first time.

Date: August 7–23, 2026 (Friday through Sunday)
Time: 2:00 p.m.–9:00 p.m. (until 8:00 p.m. on Fridays)
Main location: Jesuitenplatz, Lucerne
