About the Baden-Baden Music Festival
 
The Baden-Baden Music Festival is held annually and is organised by MRF Music Festivals, one of Europe's biggest festival organisers.  This festival is suited to those choirs looking to travel for a short period and who would like to have some free time to explore the city. Your choir will have the opportunity to perform twice, once as part of the cycle of performance for an approximate 30-minute duration and secondly as part of the joint concert where choirs perform 1-2 songs.  There is plenty of time for choirs to arrange sightseeing tours and to see all this wonderful city has to offer.

Baden-Baden is in the south west of Germany. It is also known as a spa town near the border with France. You will be satisfied with the regional food, architecture, shopping and most of all the Baths. The well-known Bath in Baden-Baden would be the Caracalla Spa.
