A festive evening for a good cause at the Duisburg Theater

The DRK Gala brings great voices, a festive atmosphere, and a genuine charity ambiance to the Grand House of the Duisburg Theater on November 21, 2026.

Brilliant musical moments and strong emotions

On stage, soloists from the ensemble of the Deutsche Oper am Rhein perform together with the Duisburg Philharmonic.

This creates an event experience that appeals to opera lovers as well as to visitors seeking a special gala evening with social significance.

The event combines musical finesse with a festive event atmosphere and a clear social added value. Those opting for VIP tickets will additionally enjoy a champagne reception, the best seats, and a multi-course gala dinner.

The Duisburg Theater as a stage with a special character
