Sommer in Lesmona - Classical Concerts in Knoops Park

Every summer, Knoops Park transforms itself into a stage in the green. The Summer in Lesmona invites you to enjoy classical music of the Chamber Philharmonic with others in a tranquil atmosphere.

When lovers of classical music and well-filled picnic baskets flock to Knoops Park in Burglesum, this is a sure sign of summer in Lesmona.

Every year since 1995, the open-air classical music festival has attracted numerous visitors from Bremen and the surrounding area to the park on a weekend in summer with a captivating programme and outstanding guests: on Friday with the charismatic violinist Nemanja Radulovic, on Saturday afternoon with a prominent actor and in the evening with world music star Goran Bregovic And His Wedding & Funeral Band. The wonderful Italian-Turkish conductor Nil Venditti will be conducting the Kammerphilharmonie on both evenings. The festival is rounded off on Sunday with the Family Day. A varied programme including the traditional picnic competition, musical workshops, an instrument route and the concluding 'Big Family Concert' invites you to join in and enjoy. The professionals of the Kammerphilharmonie will perform together with the hands-on orchestra and workshop participants.

Registration for the picnic competition takes place from 11am at the information stand. A jury will assess the offerings and evaluate the picnic baskets at 3 pm.

You can register by purchasing a ticket from us in the webshop, customer service or at the advance booking offices or box office.

The box office in Knoops Park opens two hours before the concert begins. (Exception: Sunday 11.00 am!) There are two box offices/entrances on the festival site. To avoid long waiting times, we advise you to also use entrance 2. Please get off at the shuttle service stop 'Knoops Park'.
