Welcome to the Immling Festival!

Discover with us a unique cultural jewel in the heart of picturesque Chiemgau, nestled between the vibrant cities of Munich and Salzburg and just a stone’s throw from Lake Chiemsee. For 28 years now, we have been transforming a lonely hill surrounded by lush forest and wide meadows into a lively oasis of music and performing arts.

The Immling Festival is far more than just an event – it is a Bavarian cultural institution steeped in tradition that has supported countless up-and-coming talents and shaped some into celebrated opera stars. Our stage, a converted riding hall, serves as a lively melting pot for the development and performance of our own operas and concerts.

But the Immling Festival is also a lively academy where we are passionate and dedicated to promoting young talent. Under the inspiring leadership of artistic director Ludwig Baumann and his wife, Cornelia von Kerssenbrock, not only do artistic visions flourish here, but also the memories of those who become part of this unique experience.

Experience a world full of music, surrounded by the untouched beauty of nature and the tranquillity of this unique place. Feel and hear opera and classical music at the highest level, enveloped in the incomparable atmosphere of the Immling Festival.
