To mark the release of the once-every-decade performance of Oberammergau Passion Play in 2030, custom tour operator Audley Travel has created a new itinerary to bring the play’s surroundings to life for clients traveling to Germany and Austria.
The notoriously popular, sell-out show is a community event which has been performed since 1633 in 10-year increments, with the story of Christ’s passion, death and resurrection during his final days told by the villagers of Oberammergau (located just outside of Munich). Evolving from a one-off performance to a seasonal run, a showing is now available to include by advisors as part of a bespoke booking with Audley Travel for 2030, traveling between May 18 to October 6.
Audley recommends pairing the viewing of this bucket-list Passion Play experience in the Bavarian Alps with a wider European tour exploring the history of Munich, the stunning lakes and alpine landscapes of Austria, as well as key cities Salzburg and Innsbruck.
Highlights include:
- Watching the 43rd world-renowned Passion Play in Oberammergau, with an intermission dinner during the performance
- Luxury accommodations staying in Oberammergau or surrounding Bavarian villages for an immersive experience
- Unearthing Munich’s complex political history
- Breathing in the fresh Alpine air of Innsbruck nestled in the Austrian Alps
- Discovering Mozart’s hometown of Salzburg
A 10-day Oberammergau Passion Play 2030 custom itinerary costs from $15,550 per person (based on two traveling) and includes transfers, accommodations on a B&B basis, excursions and access to the Oberammergau Passion Play. Travel advisors can call 855-435-1768 or visit www.audleytravel.com/us
