About this venue
Klubsaal at Kaufleuten is one of central Zurich's distinctive concert and club venues, located within the Kaufleuten complex. Covering approximately 500 m², the hall features an elegant red-and-gold interior, a gallery and an atmosphere that combines the character of a traditional hall with a contemporary live-music setting. For concerts and parties, the space can accommodate up to approximately 1,000 guests, while its layout can be adapted to different event formats.
The interior is designed for live events, with an existing professional lighting and sound system and flexible configurations for the stage and audience areas. Red velvet, the gallery and decorative details create a more intimate environment than a large arena, making the venue particularly suitable for concerts, club nights and cultural events where proximity between performers and the audience is an important part of the experience.
The venue is located at Pelikanplatz 18, 8001 Zurich, Switzerland. The Sihlstrasse and Rennweg tram stops are nearby, while visitors arriving by car can use public parking facilities such as Talgarten and Gessnerallee. Once at Pelikanplatz, the entrance to the Kaufleuten complex is directly accessible from the square; for wider travel around the city, see the transport information further down the page.
About the city: Geneva
Geneva, elegantly set on the shores of Lake Geneva (Lac Léman), is not only an international hub of diplomacy but also one of Europe’s most appealing stages for top-tier sports and music spectacles. The city blends a refined atmosphere with the energy of major events, so visitors often choose Geneva for its sense of exclusivity and effortless mobility. Whether you’re coming for a concert, a big match, or an arena show, the impression is always the same: everything feels close, well-organized, and stress-free.
Geneva takes pride in a practical transport infrastructure that makes reaching major arenas and stadiums straightforward. Local transit Transports publics genevois (TPG) connects key city points by tram and bus, while the regional rail network Léman Express makes arrivals from the wider area simple and logical. If you arrive by train, the main station Gare de Genève-Cornavin sits centrally and serves as a natural starting point for getting around. For those flying in, Genève Aéroport offers a fast link to the city, making the move from terminal to town—and on to the event—comfortably predictable.
Beyond the event itself, Geneva offers a diverse food scene and accommodation for different budgets, from lakeside hotels and boutique stays in the center to quieter neighborhoods with strong connections. Visitors often highlight the city’s orderliness, safety, and overall calm, which is ideal if you want to pair an evening out with a relaxed stay. That mix of smooth logistics and a pleasant atmosphere is exactly what makes Geneva a strong choice for a city break built around an event.
Take the chance to stroll by Jet d’Eau before or after the show, linger on the lakeside promenades, or explore the Vieille Ville with its stone lanes and viewpoints. In Parc des Bastions you can pause in the greenery, while a walk along the Rhône and across the city’s bridges adds a special backdrop to the whole experience. Geneva is the kind of place that easily turns a night out into a complete trip, with enough to see and do that you’ll want to return.
