Koncertsalen Alsion, Sønderborg

concert Rock party culture

Following a major success at Rock i Mølleparken in June 2024, A Tribute to Dire Straits returns to Sønderborg - this time at Koncertsalen on Alsion. According to Kultur i Syd, only a few tickets remain.

Behind the tribute concert stand six Swedish musicians who have played sold-out halls in Sweden over the past six years with their Brothers in Arms tour. The repertoire includes Dire Straits' most famous songs, including Sultans of Swing, Walk of Life and Money for Nothing. The band describes the Alsion concert as the most ambitious they have ever staged.

Dire Straits was formed in 1977 and achieved global success in the 1980s with Mark Knopfler at the helm. The band's world tour in 1985-86 sold around three million tickets, and Brothers in Arms went down in music history as the first CD album with over one million copies sold.

About the venue: Koncertsalen Alsion

Koncertsalen Alsion in Sønderborg is the main concert hall for the whole of Southern Jutland, with seating for up to 988 guests. The programme ranges from classical music and opera to stand-up, comedy and lectures, with Sønderjyllands Symfoniorkester as a regular resident ensemble. The hall is constructed as two concrete shells, one inside the other, keeping outside noise at bay and giving it acoustics that performers consistently praise. The 20-metre-wide stage can be adjusted hydraulically to depths of 6, 9 or 12 metres.
