Musis Arnhem

About

Musis is Arnhem’s leading concert hall and a cultural landmark where music, architecture, and community come together. Set beside the city’s green belt, it combines a historic 19th‑century façade with a striking modern extension that opens onto Park Sonsbeek. The building is home to Het Gelders Orkest and hosts a wide range of performances, from classical concerts and opera to jazz, pop, and contemporary productions. Its main hall is celebrated for exceptional acoustics, while the transparent new wing creates a light‑filled space that visually connects the venue with the surrounding park. Musis serves as both a performance hub and a social meeting place, welcoming audiences of all ages. With its blend of heritage and innovation, it stands as one of Arnhem’s most inspiring cultural venues, enriching the city’s artistic life throughout the year.
