What does an anniversary sound like? It sounds best together! For the 80th anniversary of the Bregenzer Festspiele, the Seebühne will transform into a very special soundscape on 1 August 2026: At the Singalong at the Lake, the outdoor auditorium itself becomes one musical entity as passionate singers from across the Lake Constance region gather to perform famous opera choruses together.
Programme: O sole mio Der Freischütz: Jägerchor Turandot: Nessun dorma Der Troubadour: Anvil Chorus Nabucco: Va, pensiero Carmen: Toréador La traviata: Brindisi Happy birthday
