The Berliner Philharmonie is a concert hall with 2,440 seats in Berlin-Tiergarten (constructed from 1960 to 1963 and designed by Hans Scharoun) and the home of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. It is a famous building with outstanding musicians. Reservations are recommended, but cheaper tickets are usually available 2–4 hours before the concert if not sold out. Every Tuesday (September to June) at 13:00–14:00, there is a free lunch concert; come early. In the winter, late-night concerts (22:30 or 23:00) are a bargain and often have more avant-garde or unconventional formats. The Kammermusiksaal (Chamber Music Hall) was added later in 1984–1987 as a venue for smaller concerts with 1,180 seats. It is linked to the foyer of the Philharmonie. Both buildings are located in the Kulturforum area.
