Ticketed open air concert series at Dolder Kunsteisbahn in early summer. Shows typically run in the evening, so bring warm layers for higher altitude temperatures. Plan tram and possible late night travel back after encores.

June programming often reflects the closing stages of the main opera season. Longer days and nearby Opera for All screenings can influence demand. Check performance dates early, as there may be fewer show nights than in winter.

June exhibitions offer a cool indoor balance to outdoor festivals and lake days. The museum’s central location lets you duck in between Pride events, art weekends or evening screenings without complex routing.
