Khalid Bounouar live in Munich

Experience Khalid Bounouar live on May 25th

Khalid Bounouar is scheduled to perform at Circus Krone in Munich, Germany on May 25, 2027. Bounouar is a Moroccan-German musician known for his blend of Gnawa music—a form of Moroccan religious song and music—with contemporary jazz and electronic elements. His performances often feature the *guembri*, a three-stringed bass lute central to Gnawa traditions, alongside modern instrumentation and improvisational techniques. He frequently collaborates with musicians from diverse backgrounds, resulting in a sound that bridges cultural boundaries.

Circus Krone is a historically significant circus building located in Munich’s Isarvorstadt district. Opened in 1905, it has undergone several iterations, with the current building constructed in 1942 after a fire destroyed its predecessor. While primarily a venue for traditional circus performances featuring animal acts and acrobatics, Circus Krone has increasingly hosted concerts and other events in recent decades, leveraging its unique architectural design and large capacity. The building is recognizable by its distinctive blue cupola and is considered one of the most important circus venues in Europe. It can accommodate over 3,500 spectators.
