Konzerthaus StadthalleWolfgang-Marguerre-Saal

The Stadthalle Heidelberg has been the main venue and the heart of the Musikfestival since the Heidelberger Frühling was founded in 1997. After an extensive renovation, which was made possible from 2019 to 2025 thanks to the generous support of Heidelberg entrepreneur and honorary citizen Wolfgang Marguerre and his family and his company Octapharma, the Musikfestival will return to the modernized concert hall in 2026. In addition to the Heidelberger Frühling, the Stadthalle will once again be used for a wide range of concerts, cultural events and congresses.

Checkrooms are compulsory in the Wolfgang Marguerre Hall. We kindly ask you to leave your jackets, rucksacks or large bags free of charge at the checkroom, which is accessible via a few steps or an elevator in the foyer.

The festival center in the Meriansaal is open before and after the concerts, as well as during intermission. Here you can linger, enjoy drinks and snacks and meet one or the other artist after the concert.

Coat check is required in the halls of the Stadthalle Concert Hall.

Events at this venue

The building was constructed between 1901 and 1903 as an assembly and festival hall by Jakob Henkenhaf and Friedrich Ebert, under the special construction management of C. Wächter. The architecture combines elements of the Wilhelminian style, Renaissance and Art Nouveau, making the town hall with its striking Main sandstone façade an important cultural monument in Heidelberg.

The comprehensive refurbishment by Waechter+Waechter Architekten BDA ensures that the Stadthalle will remain a cultural landmark in the future. The technical equipment and usage options were modernized without losing its historical character.
