Casa da Música | Porto | Portugal
Porto’s boldest architectural icon and a temple of sound, explore Casa da Música
Rising from a travertine plateau in Porto’s Boavista district, the Casa da Música is much more than a concert hall — it’s a landmark of modern architecture and a dynamic hub for music, creativity, and culture.
Designed by renowned Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas (OMA), this striking asymmetrical building was inaugurated in 2005 and quickly became a symbol of the city’s contemporary spirit.
Spanning over 22,000 m², it houses the Porto Symphony Orchestra, a Grand Auditorium, multiple rehearsal rooms, recording studios, educational spaces, a restaurant, a VIP lounge, and a rooftop terrace bar — all connected by raw concrete and dramatic geometric lines.
Whether you’re attending a symphony, exploring the architecture, or enjoying a sunset drink with city views, Casa da Música offers a multi-sensory experience that bridges innovation, culture, and urban life.
