Advent Concerts: Matinee and Vivat TUM

A passion for music unites the community of our university. Students, alumni, staff members, donors and friends of all ages traditionally come together for the advent concerts.

Isarphilharmonie during TUM concert

This year, we returned to the traditional date on the First Advent with the TUM Advent Concerts: It was great to see that so many members and friends of TUM made their way to Isarphilaharmonie despite the difficult weather conditions. First the TUM Advent matinee in the morning and later in the afternoon the Vivat TUM concert united employees, students, friends and supporters, alumni, first semester students and the Friends of TUM e.V. and put us in a festive mood together. Many thanks to everyone involved - on stage, in the hall and in the background!
