The Bolzano Concert Association is one of the oldest music organisers in Tyrol. It goes back to the Bolzano Music Society, which has been instrumental in the musical development of Bolzano since 1855. Since its foundation in 1855, its aim has been to organise an annual season of first-class classical music concerts in Bolzano almost without interruption. The first concert of the 2025 season takes us back to the era of the magnificent royal courts, with an ensemble that is still unique today. There is no comparable oboe group: La Petite Ecurié is a five-piece international ensemble consisting of baroque oboes (the French >hautbois< ), taille, baroque bassoon and historical percussion instruments, founded in 2018 (South Tyrolean percussionist Philipp Lamprecht is a founding member). Performing with this special ensemble will be trumpeter Bernhard Bär, who has an international career as a trumpet soloist with various renowned ensembles, Together they will perform 17th and 18th century works by Jacques Paisibles, Gottfried Finger, G. F. Händel, Arcangello Corelli and Henry Purcell.

Peaceful and Authentic Ambience at the Ritten Christmas Market.

The International New Year’s Eve Run BOclassic starts and ends directly at the Bolzano Christmas Market on the Walther Square. The event is an institution - since 1974 the year has been brought to a sporty end in Bolzano. Runners from all over the world meet in the provincial capital on December 31 to compete in the Raiffeisen BOclassic South Tyrol, which starts and ends at the central Walther Square. It is the last day of the year, when in the afternoon the athletes first run through the Bolzano Christmas Market, cross the old town with Piazza delle Erbe and Via dei Portici, reach the Piazza della Stazione and then - after exactly 1,250 metres - can be seen again at Piazza Walther. This is repeated eight times for the male top athletes of the BOclassic Elite, and four times for the female participants. The other four categories do fewer laps: the Just for Fun event for everyone, the 5 km long Ladurner Run, the Raiffeisen Youth Cup and the Handbike Show Run. Years ago, a starting fee had to be paid, today, the elite runners arrive exclusively on invitation. The BOclassic is the annual start of the South Tyrol Top 7 running series, which also includes the Caldaro Lake Run and the Lake Resia Run.
