Salzburg Festival 2024
After 172 performances over 44 days at 15 venues, the Directorate of the Salzburg Festival, Kristina Hammer, Markus Hinterhäuser and Lukas Crepaz, is delighted to announce that the percentage of occupied seats reached 98.2%. More than 250.000 visitors from 77 countries, 40 of them non-European, attended this year’s programme of events.
34 performances of five staged and four concert productions made up the opera programme, flanked by 85 concerts. 14 of these formed part of the series Ouverture spirituelle, whose motto this year was “Et exspecto”. On the 150th anniversary of Arnold Schoenberg’s birth, the Salzburg Festival dedicated a concert series to the composer. In addition to the live concerts, the Director of Concerts Florian Wiegand was also responsible for numerous televised and streamed productions as well as radio recordings. Thanks to the partners in the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), the Festival’s radio broadcasts and audiovisual transmissions reach an audience of millions all over the world.
Marina Davydova, Director of Drama, presented a wide-ranging programme during her first season. Apart from three staged new productions, two world premieres, a multi-disciplinary performance and a ballet, she had conceived several readings for this year’s programme.
Jedermann, the play of the rich man’s dying, was shown in a new production directed by Robert Carsen. Of the 14 performances, nine took place on Cathedral Square and five at the Großes Festspielhaus.
The Education Manager Ursula Gessat presented three new productions on the Schauspielhaus stage, part of the young programme jung&jede*r, which has been firmly established since 2020. The Festival Mentorship programme was successfully continued; furthermore, 6,000 tickets were offered to those under 27 years of age for events in all three genre categories.
