Programme
Overview

With "The Force Awakens", one of the most successful films of all time, the sequel to Episode VI is coming to the KKL Luzern for the first time and joins the successful concert as the beginning of the latest "Star Wars" trilogy -Series of "Star Wars in Concert". The 21st Century Orchestra, conducted by Ludwig Wicki, brings the sound world of John Williams to the cult blockbuster acoustically to life on the big screen. Actually, everything seemed to be told in "Return of the Jedi"... The Emperor defeated, Darth Vader redeemed, the rebellion triumphed over the cruel empire - and in the end there was even a Jedi knight named Luke Skywalker.

More than 30 years after the glorious end of the original trilogy, the father of the saga, George Lucas, gave up all rights to the "Walt Disney" film empire - a bang. With the new film studio, a new generation entered the galactic playing field of star battles in 2015 in "The Force Awakens". In Episode VII, young Rey joins pilot Poe Dameron and Stormtrooper Finn in search of the roots of her mysterious origins, leading them to rebel against Supreme Commander Kylo Ren and his imperial terror regime. Due to Darth Vader's grandfather's legacy, he has fallen under the spell of the sinister Snoke.

Of course, a complete "Star Wars" concert includes a reunion with favorites like Han Solo, Leia, Chewbacca, C-3PO and R2-D2 as well as the familiar sounds of the genre-defining, classically influenced soundtrack by John Williams. The composer stayed true to the series and also created galactic film music for the new trilogy. The numerous musical leitmotifs of the cosmic saga take the audience emotionally to distant galaxies. When lightsabers light up the screen and the millennium falcon whizzes in your ears, eyes of all ages light up!

Venue Info

KKL Luzern - Lucerne
Location   Europaplatz 1

KKL Luzern’s spectacular architecture designed by Pritzker Prize winner Jean Nouvel and the quality of its facilities set this venue apart from more traditional culture and convention centres. Its trade-mark is the common theme of culture, conferences and culinary choices – the complete experience orchestrated under the famous roof. The building is situated in the heart of Switzerland, only one hour by train from Zurich Airport, within walking distance of Lucerne’s finest hotels and a few sheltered steps from the international railway station. It is the perfect venue for your next premium event, such as product launches, anniversary celebrations and award ceremonies, high-profile meetings, receptions and banquets.

Concert Hall
The showpiece of the KKL Luzern is its renowned Concert Hall with 1,898 seats and acoustics that provide incredible sound and inspire the world’s leading conductors, orchestras and soloists to perform at their best.

Conventions
The outstanding Concert Hall with its multifunctional usage, is also an exciting possibility for conventions. A wide screen is hidden above the stage and may be lowered for awards, product presentations and other events. Interpreting booths and excellent infrastructure are at hand for a most memorable convention or meeting or live television broadcast.

Two water canals frame the Lucerne Hall, a venue that is also unique in its adaptability and convertible for 200 up to 1,800 guests. It can be used for a variety of settings including product presentations, congresses, concerts and banquets. With its appropriate audiovisual facilities, variable height staging and mobile rostrum, all combined with the deliberately simple design of the hall, the organizer will find creative freedom to style the event.

The Auditorium for up to 271 listeners, too, is equipped with state-of-the-art congress installations and, like the Lucerne Hall, provides an attractive setting for conferences. Event organizers are also increasingly discovering the Crystal Lounge, the attractive meeting point in the KKL Luzern. It boasts an oval-shaped bar that can be moved around the space, allowing for maximum flexibility and turning the lounge into a premier events venue.

Culinary experiences
The cuisine facilities of the KKL Luzern offer organizers and guests all kinds of catering options and total culinary experiences. Packages and offers – such as refreshing time-outs, cocktail receptions for networking, stand-up lunches, seated dinners or exclusive lounge experiences – can be tailored to the organizer’s specific needs.
