Imagine the bustling marketplace that once filled this space. The sounds of bartering and the aroma of fresh produce.

In 2015 this space was reborn. The Mehr! Theater opened its doors with a bang a concert by the London Symphony Orchestra. Twenty-five million euros transformed this marketplace into a magnificent venue.

Since then the Mehr! Theater has hosted a whirlwind of events. Rock concerts by Iggy Pop and Kylie Minogue. Musicals like Dirty Dancing and We Will Rock You. Over 170000 people attended 100 shows in its first year alone.

But perhaps its most significant moment was the arrival of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. This magical production required a huge transformation.
