Herrenchiemsee Festival

Cultural delights on a royal stage
Experience Lake Chiemsee at its most atmospheric, with music, nature and exceptional hospitality.
As the main hotel sponsor of the Herrenchiemsee Festival, we at the Chiemgauhof – Lakeside Retreat open the doors to one of Bavaria’s most exclusive musical events. Situated right on the shores of Lake Chiemsee, our package combines first-class concert experiences with the quiet elegance and relaxed atmosphere of our hotel.

Hall of Mirrors 1

The Herrenchiemsee Festival is one of Germany’s most renowned classical music festivals. Every summer, the magnificent Hall of Mirrors at Herrenchiemsee Palace on Herreninsel becomes a stage for leading international orchestras, soloists and conductors.

The unique atmosphere is created by the combination of music, architecture and landscape: guests reach the islands by boat across Lake Chiemsee and enjoy concerts against the historic backdrop of the palace built by King Ludwig II. Further selected performances take place on Fraueninsel at Frauenwörth Abbey.

The festival programme is one of the cultural highlights of the Chiemgau region.
