Festspielhaus Baden-Baden

When Richard Wagner conceived his “Gesamtkunstwerk”...

... he left out the food.

However, music has been closely associated with food since ancient times as it is not only wine that goes wonderfully well with a discussion over a musical presentation, but also fine cuisine.Dig in and enjoy! All dishes are freshly prepared on site by our own in-house chefs.  Today - in the former first-class railway waiting room where Emperors of the world once dined - we would like to treat you like a king. After all, indulgence was a supreme art-form long before the emergence of Oscar Wilde.

AIDA-Restaurant

Our head chef Andreas Hack and his accomplished team await you with culinary delicacies and a selection of fine wines in our à la carte restaurant. "Aida" opens two hours prior to the start of each performance, and serves warm food until midnight. Table reservations can be made under 0049 72 21/ 30 13-325.

Celebrate with us!

In addition to the perfect organisation skills of those working here, the Festspielhaus architecture also contributes to the extraordinary atmosphere of Germany’s largest opera house. In an outstanding example of pioneering days meeting post modern, it was built onto an historic railway station building. This charming combination satisfies even the most demanding of guests. You have the ideas, we have the means of fulfilling them as in the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, ideas are limitless. These premises can be utilised to your heart’s desire, and not merely on days when no performances are taking place. ›› more
