Munich, 15/01/2027
André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra open a run of German dates at Munich’s Olympiahalle on Friday, 15 January 2027, with the concert starting at 20:00. The Bavarian capital is one of the more prestigious stops on this leg of the tour, set inside the city’s Olympic Park.
Munich has a deep classical music tradition of its own, home to some of Europe’s most respected orchestras, and Rieu’s shows have consistently found a warm reception here over the years thanks to a blend of grand orchestral sound and accessible, crowd-pleasing showmanship.
Expect a programme moving between sweeping Strauss waltzes, operatic highlights, popular film themes and well-loved classics, staged with the elaborate costumes, lighting design and theatrical flourishes that have become the production’s trademark. Guest vocalists and instrumental soloists typically join the orchestra throughout the evening.
Olympiahalle Munich, part of the Olympic Park built for the 1972 Summer Olympics, has a concert capacity of up to 15,500, making it one of the larger and more storied venues on this stretch of the tour.
Doors are expected to open roughly ninety minutes before the 20:00 start. The performance typically runs for about two and a half hours, including a 20-minute interval.
Munich’s Olympic Park setting gives visitors plenty to explore before or after the show, from the park grounds themselves to the city’s historic centre a short distance away.
The Munich date opens a busy German stretch of the tour, with the show continuing to Mannheim the following day, 16 January, before further dates across the country later in the month.
Tickets for Munich are available now, and given the pace at which other stops on this tour have moved, early booking is worth considering for anyone hoping to see André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra live on 15 January.
