Düsseldorf has a thriving performing arts scene. The
Deutsche Oper am Rhein (tel: (0211) 892 5211; website:
www.rheinoper.de) opera house presents opera and ballet at very reasonable prices. The main venue for classical music is the landmark green-domed
Tonhalle (tel: (0211) 899 6123; website:
www.tonhalle-duesseldorf.de), home to the Düsseldorf Symphoniker. Contemporary and multi-cultural dance is staged at the
tanzhaus nrw (tel: (0211) 172
700; website:
www.tanzhaus-nrw.de).
Two other theater venues that stage a wide range of musical acts are the
Capitol Theater (tel: (0211) 734 4150; website:
www.capitol-theater.de) and the
Philipshalle (tel: (0211) 899 755; website:
www.philipshalle.de). The latter hosts big-name pop and rock acts, though superstars, such as the Rolling Stones, play at the
LTU Arena Football Stadium (tel: 01805 644 332; website:
www.ltuarena.de).
For a night of traditional German cabaret and circus-style acts (with few language barriers), visit
Roncalli’s Apollo Varieté (tel: (0211) 8289 090; website:
www.apollovariete.de).
The tourist office has information on what’s on. For listings geared to English-speaking visitors buy a copy of
