Part of the Familljefestival «Chrëschtdag» on -
The Philharmonie’s Familljefestival sets the tone, offers inspiration, celebrates traditions and holds a few surprises as well – this season, the family event is dedicated entirely to the most popular holiday of all. Offerings in every hall and space invite family members of all ages to listen and join in: funny and emotional stories as well as plenty of creative stations to sing along, try out handicrafts, and so much more!
