The performance locations include classical music halls (such as Konzerthaus Dortmund, Musiktheater im Revier, Gelsenkirchen, Tonhalle Düsseldorf); the castle Schloss Herten; several museums (one being the Westphalian State Museum of Art and Cultural History) and parks like the Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord.[1][2] Locations include some unconventional venues as well, including the Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex (a World Heritage Site).
