Argovia Philharmonic live in Aarau

Experience Argovia Philharmonic live on September 20th

The Argovia Philharmonic will perform at Reithalle in Aarau, Switzerland on September 20, 2026. The orchestra is known for its versatile repertoire spanning from Baroque to contemporary compositions, with a particular focus on works by Swiss composers and a commitment to innovative programming alongside established classical pieces. They frequently collaborate with both established and emerging soloists.

Reithalle Aarau is a former riding hall dating back to 1868, originally constructed for the Aargau cantonal cavalry. Following military use, it underwent several transformations including periods as a market hall and storage facility. In the 1980s, extensive renovations transformed it into a multi-purpose event space while retaining its industrial character; visible features include the original wooden roof structure and large arched windows.

Today, Reithalle serves as a significant cultural venue in Aarau hosting concerts, theatrical performances, exhibitions and other events. Its acoustics are noted as being particularly well-suited for orchestral performances due to the hall’s volume and architectural design. The building is owned by the Canton of Aargau and managed by a dedicated team focused on maintaining its historical integrity alongside its function as a modern event location.
