Béla Bartók Concert Hall
Szombathely has devoted a lot of attention to music ever since Bishop Szily engaged the services of full-time musicians to perform at church functions - not services. One important venue is the Béla Bartók Concert Hall, attached to the former synagogue, where the Savaria Symphony Orchestra performs throughout the year.

Ferenc Liszt Music Academy
A block southeast of Oktogon, what’s usually just called the ‘music academy’ was built in 1907. It attracts students from all over the world and is one of the top venues for concerts. The interior, with large and small concert halls richly embellished with Zsolnay porcelain and frescoes, is worth a look even if you’re not attending a performance.
