Music in Chorzów means concerts at Teatr Rozrywki, culture houses, the Silesian Planetarium and the rock cafe Leśniczówka, over ten dates in the calendar.

Where in Chorzów are concerts held?

Several dates each belong to Leśniczówka Rock'n'Roll Cafe and the Chorzowskie Centrum Kultury. Single concerts fall to the Starochorzowski Dom Kultury and to two larger institutions: Teatr Rozrywki and the Planetarium Śląskie. All of them are in Chorzów, so an evening with music can be planned without leaving the city.

Which cultural institutions put on music in Chorzów?

Teatr Rozrywki (Katowicka 62) keeps actors, singers, dancers and an orchestra in its own ensemble and has been running since 1985. Its home stands in the Śródmieście district of Chorzów, where Katowicka and Konopnicka streets meet. A concert there differs from a club gig: the stage belongs to a musical theatre.

The Planetarium Śląskie rises on Góra Parkowa in the Silesian Park (Aleja Planetarium 4). It opened in 1955 and still holds the title of the largest and oldest planetarium in the country. Today it operates as Planetarium - Śląski Park Nauki, with displays about the stars, earthquakes and weather. A concert in such a building is easy to combine with a look at the exhibitions.

The two district culture houses are, in turn, addresses for people who prefer music close to home. The first returns in the calendar several times, the second only once.

How do you pick a concert in Chorzów?

If you like a rock atmosphere and a small venue, start with Leśniczówka. A culture house suits a quiet evening, and the theatre or the planetarium suit those who want to combine music with a visit to a well-known place. The music calendar for Chorzów has a day filter, and a chosen date carries the "Kup bilet" button.
