Concert programme 2021
True to tradition, Selsø Slot is transformed into Denmark's most beautiful concert venue! Book a ticket and experience the music flowing through the castle's ballroom full of candlelight, or join us in the summer when the courtyard is turned into an outdoor stage, with time to relax on the grass.
As something quite new, the newly formed Selsø-Hornsherred Musikforening is behind the season's programme, which offers many high-quality classical concerts. Get an overview here and buy tickets from 15 April via this link:
