Nightlife

The city's nightlife is becoming less conservative, but don't expect it to be too wild. Most of the nightspots in Zurich close down early, so you should begin early. Concerts, theater, opera, and ballet all flourish here.

To learn what's on during your visit, pick up a copy of Zurich News, available free at the tourist office and distributed at the front desks of most hotels.

The Performing Arts

No special discount tickets are granted, but for regular tickets to operas, theaters, and concerts, go to Billettzentrale (BiZZ for short), Stadthausquai 17 (tel. 044/221-22-83), open Monday to Friday from 10am to 6:30pm and on Saturday from 10am to 2pm.

The Zurich Opera is the most outstanding local company, performing at the Opernhaus. The Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, performing at Tonhalle, also enjoys an international reputation.
