The Salzburg Festival (Salzburger Festspiele) is one of the world's most prestigious music and drama festivals, held annually in July and August in Salzburg, Austria. Founded in 1920 and closely associated with Richard Strauss, Hugo von Hofmannsthal, and Max Reinhardt, it presents opera, concerts, and drama across multiple venues including the Großes Festspielhaus, the Felsenreitschule, and the Haus für Mozart. The festival's opening production of Jedermann on Domplatz is one of the most iconic events in classical music.

Its Großer Saal — the Golden Hall — opened in 1870 and is widely regarded as one of the finest concert halls in the world for its extraordinary acoustics.
