The past year is on its way out and you're standing on the doorstep of 2017. Before watching the fireworks over Theaterplatz, watch the Dresden Residenz Orchestra play a celebratory new year's concert in the Dresden Zwinger with selected soloists and the best musicians.

Visit the beautiful Wallpavillon of the Dresden Zwinger and listen to the great classics at a magical New Year’s Eve concert. Ever since the kings held their celebrations in the Dresden Residenz, music has played an important role in the Zwinger both outside as well as inside its many resonant halls.
