Freiheizhalle Munich

Freiheizhalle Munich

Power to the party people

Viola from Munich

About me In 2007 I moved to Munich for love, leaving my buzzing life in London behind me and swapping it for an equally thrilling one in the heart of Bavaria. I am a brand designer and work as brand strategist for a design company based in Munich and Shanghai. Besides that, I am a monster tamer taking care of two underaged monsters which are the centre of my world and inspiring ...
""Freiheizhalle" Munich is a music hall/venue with great acoustics, something not as common as I'd expect, especially with ex-factories/power stations..."

The Freiheizhalle, its name being a play of the words freedom and heating, is one out of my two most favourite music venues in Munich. The problem with a lot of contemporary music venues here is that most of them are big halls. There are indeed a few old factory halls which are lovely but a lot of concerts take place in the Olympia Hall which isn't charming at all. But no matter if it's charming or not, they all have one thing in common: the acoustics are usually not great.

But there is an exception to every rule. Although the Freiheizhalle is also a hall it is a beautiful location and I have been to a few concerts which I enjoyed every single time. One of my favourite concerts so far was a Scott Matthew gig which was a small and almost intimate evening with a wonderful atmosphere.

The place is the old power and heat supply station for Munich train station and is located in the city centre - unlike a lot of Munich's venues. The Freiheizhalle was only recently refurbished and in my eyes the architects did fantastic work.

I am a brand designer and work as brand strategist for a design company based in Munich and Shanghai. Besides that, I am a monster tamer taking care of two underaged monsters which are the centre of my world and inspiring me every day. Apart from my obvious passion for monsters and design I love anything that has to do with art, architecture or history. I would actually visit a city purely for its architec...
