It has been seven years since André Rieu last visited Budapest, but finally, he is returning again. On November 9, he will come to the magnificent MVM Dome together with the Johan Strauss orchestra. This is a fabulous opportunity to see and hear a legend in the world of classical music today.
An André Rieu concert is always special because of the big orchestra and choir that he brings along, and because he always invite special artists to perform during these events. This is a wonderful chance to see the beautiful buildings and attractions of Budapest with a classical concert that will warm your heart and soul before Christmas. Unfortunately, the Christmas markets in Budapest will not open this early (most likely one week later), but you can still visit popular stores and bring some tasty white wine from Tokaj or Hungarian sausage that will bring joy and laughter to your Christmas dinner.
André Rieu was born in Maastricht in the Netherlands in 1949, the same year that Bruce Springsteen, Lionel Richie, Meryl Streep, and the Republic of China were born. He received his internationally breakthrough after creating the Johan Strauss Orchestra in 1987, and he has since then traveled the world frequently. It is quite amazing that André Rieu at an age of 75 will tour throughout all of 2024, with the final concert being arranged in Antwerp in Belgium in January 2025.
