The Lucerne Festival Orchestra can not only be experienced in summer, but also attracts classical music fans from all over the world to Lake Lucerne in spring. One week before Easter, on the weekend around Palm Sunday, the musicians open Lucerne's festival year with a three-day celebration of music.
In 2026, the Lucerne Festival Orchestra continues its inspiring Beethoven explorations and performs two very different symphonies under the direction of Riccardo Chailly and Franz Welser-Möst.
