Theater on the Elbe

The musical journey begins at the floating dock – called the ''Landungsbrücken''. From here the visitors are transported across the Elbe to the brand-new Stage Theatre, which offers a sensational view of Hamburg’s skyline.

The new theatre is an architectural gem due to the ten thousand sparking shingles made of stainless steel and its twelve meter high glass facade. Additionally, the interior offers a gorgeous two-story foyer with an open gallery, appealing bars and contemporary art for the guests to explore. Furthermore, the wonderful theatre offers 1850 seats to watch the musical artistry perform at its highest standards.
