Kirchberg Plateau:
The Kirchberg Plateau is the business district of Luxembourg’s
banking and financial centre and is home to one of the several
seats of the European Union, the European Court of Justice, the
European Investment Bank and the European Court of Auditors.

Events & highlights:
During the summer months, the city centre comes to life thanks to the “Summer in the City” festival, with an
extensive program of outdoor activities, exhibitions, and countless other tourist attractions. Due to the current
situation, the program also features virtual activities and live stream events.

All events labelled “Summer in the City” are the result of a close collaboration between various players in the
capital and many institutional and private partners.
