I thought the place was great, 100% friendly, good sound, I don't know whose mistake it was when Cradle Of Filth was playing, but they kept us waiting for a long time while they fixed it...

What can I say, Rockhouse is your go-to place when you are in Salzburg. There’s something going on almost every day so there is always something to watch from concerts to workshops and not only Rock music but literally everything possible so you’ll definitely find something to your taste.
Dr. Michael Kohlberger, BSc MSc
Great concerts and events, however the bar prices are quite high and their standard beer is not very good. Often events are held in the Rockhouse Bar even though the hall would be more fitting. This is a bit annoying because then the bar is very crowded, but in fact the sound is much better in the bar. It's good in the hall, but it's phenomenal in the bar.

Wow. Just wow. Brilliant line up of touring acts and the staff know how to host talent. Looking forward to making a stop next time I'm in Salzburg.
