Today, it stands as a global leader in music education, its atmosphere shaped by a dynamic blend of large-scale performances, intimate encounters, and a deep commitment to artistic mentorship.

The upcoming Shenzhen edition marks a historic moment: the Festival’s first appearance outside Europe. Over ten days, the city will welcome:

• 7 masterclasses
• A rich array of artistic exchanges and interactive programmes.

Among these events, 17 concerts will be presented at the Shenzhen Concert Hall, with an additional 4 concerts hosted at the Shenzhen Longgang International Art Center—bringing the essence of Verbier’s Alpine musical spirit to two of the region’s premier cultural venues.
