The festival will welcome over 145 international musicians from all over the world to the Haus der Berliner Festspiele and surrounding venues from 3 to 6 November in the German capital. The 59th edition of the festival takes place in the recently renovated Haus der Berliner Festspiele, the Pierre Boulez Saal, the nearby clubs A-Trane and Quasimodo, and the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedächtnis-Kirche.
