Konzertabend der Musikkapelle Marling

Concert evenings with the Marlengo band

The Konzertabend der Musikkapelle Marling are the summer concert series presented by the Marlengo brass band (Musikkapelle Marling) in the municipality of Marlengo/Marling, located in the province of Bolzano, in the heart of the Burgraviato and the Trentino-Alto Adige region. From May to September, on select Thursday evenings, the village Musikpavillon transforms into an open-air stage for the local band, set against the backdrop of a typical South Tyrolean village just a short distance from Merano.

A varied program with free admission

Each concert features a light and diverse program of brass band music: traditional marches, concert arrangements, polkas, waltzes, and folk melodies that are staples of the South Tyrolean Musikkapellen repertoire. Admission is free, and concerts begin at 8:30 PM. A bar service is available from 8:00 PM, offering drinks and light refreshments in a friendly, convivial atmosphere.

A deeply rooted musical tradition

Brass bands (Musikkapellen) are a fundamental institution of village life in South Tyrol, accompanying religious festivals, processions, civic celebrations, and community gatherings. The summer Konzertabend represent the most social side of this tradition, offering locals and visitors alike the chance to gather outdoors and enjoy their local band. In Marlengo, the Musikkapelle carries on this heritage with evenings that blend music, social connection, and local identity.

Just a stone's throw from Merano

Marlengo is situated on the sunny slopes above Merano, in an area defined by the orchards and vineyards that characterize the Burgraviato landscape. Its location makes these concert evenings easily accessible for those staying in Merano and the surrounding area, providing visitors with an authentic taste of South Tyrolean folk culture on a summer evening.
