Since our opening concert by Willy DeVille on 13 August 1988, we have done everything we can to be a social meeting place, cultural living room and friendly madhouse for our audience.

Our wide range of events includes concerts, parties, poetry slams, jam sessions and much more. On weekdays, the Albani is a cosy bar with a vintage flair. What is often forgotten is that we also offer overnight accommodation, and the Albani stands for openness and diversity. This is reflected not only in the concert and party programme, which ranges from electronic music and hip-hop to indie, rock and alternative, but also in the fact that people of all ages and backgrounds come and go here.

Generation after generation of Winterthur residents have grown up with the Albani. And although small, it is impossible to imagine the city without this cult venue on Steinberggasse.
