Augusta Raurica – Live In Concert

ROCKING THE ROMAN THEATRE

The Roman Theatre of Augusta Raurica is the best-preserved ancient open-air theatre north of the Alps and has been a Z7 concert venue for many years. In 2014, Swiss Pink Floyd tribute band Crazy Diamond delivered one of the most impressive concert experiences ever staged here, followed by performances from artists such as Tangerine Dream, Nena, Mike & The Mechanics, Nick Mason and Beth Hart. Anyone who has experienced a concert in this 1,600-seat semicircular arena knows the unique atmosphere of this historic setting. In 2026, Z7 returns and presents Augusta Raurica – Live in Concert with Crazy Diamond, Apocalyptica and Eluveitie as top-tier headliners.

AN EVENING WITH ELUVEITIE – PURE FOLK METAL

Pure Folk Metal is the banner under which Eluveitie march. Since 2002, the band led by mastermind Chrigel Glanzmann has been blending melodic death metal with Celtic folk music into a sound that is instantly recognizable. Armed with this distinctive mix, the Winterthur-based band has been touring the globe for years – with ever-growing success. When it comes to metal from Switzerland, Eluveitie have long been the benchmark. With sold-out tours and widely acclaimed releases, the pioneers of the New Wave of Folk Metal have become the most successful Swiss metal export of all time. All the more reason to celebrate that the band regularly returns home to throw exuberant parties with the fans who helped shape their rise. In April 2025, Eluveitie released their long-awaited new album ÀNV. Chrigel comments: “We’re incredibly proud of it. Right from the start of this project, our goal was to create a very genuine and honest album – similar to our early works. And that’s exactly what we achieved with ÀNV. Raw and brutally honest. At the same time, it’s a modern and uncompromising album that musically reflects the depth of its lyrics: sincere, profound and more relevant than ever!” Their most recent tour with Arch Enemy, Amorphis and Gatecreeper was a triumphant run across Europe, and we’re beyond excited to celebrate and enjoy An Evening With Eluveitie in the summer of 2026.
