Experience an astonishing performance by renowned violinist and conductor, André Rieu, and the Johann Strauss Orchestra on this unmissable holiday. Taking over the Vrijthof Square in the centre of Maastricht, the open-air concert is guaranteed to leave you speechless, with special guests and some of the best waltzes and classical music. Maastricht is André Rieu’s hometown, and the only city in the world where he performs open-air concerts every single year – the summer performances are the ultimate experience for his fans. Prior to the concert, we’ll explore the charming city of Maastricht and enjoy a live cooking dinner buffet with included drinks at the Van der Valk Maastricht. We also include a visit to the wonderful city of Cologne where the cathedral dominates the skyline.
