Luis from South Tyrol: Pfiati - The Farewell Tour
After more than two decades on the cabaret and small theatre stages, Luis del Sudtirolo, alias Manfred Zöschg, bids farewell to his audience with one last big tour. At the same time, he offers a unique opportunity to experience the popular South Tyrolean cabaret artist live once again. In his suitcase: new acts, tried-and-tested classics and lots of true stories – funny, touching and typically “Luis”. The audience can expect a very personal programme, which contains both a look back at his greatest moments and a glimpse of what is to come. An evening full of laughter, nostalgia and surprises – perhaps even for Luis himself. 'I owe everything, absolutely everything, to my audience. For me, “Pfiati” doesn't just mean “goodbye”, it means “take care”. And I say it with all my heart." — Manfred Zöschg alias Luis from South Tyrol The farewell He still feels at home on stage – but at 67, everything else has simply become too tiring. So it's better to stop while it's still fun. The last tour is, as he says, ‘a mountain run without training – tiring, but with a view’. It is also a thank you. To all those who have accompanied him, understood him, made him laugh and listened to him. The farewell tour is also accompanied by the release of his book (in German), which will be published in autumn 2025 by Raetia publishing house. It offers profound insights into Luis's private life – childhood memories, anecdotes, jokes and, of course, plenty of humour. Particularly close to his heart is the story of the legendary “gold discovery”: a gold-plated lead ingot, secretly hidden in the garden, which sparked childish excitement, neighbourhood gossip – and, to this day, conversations in the village. Alongside amusing memories, the book also recounts particular challenges – such as his performance in New York, when Luis presented part of his programme in English – ‘without much pressure, but with a lot of heart’. The ‘Pfiati’ tour is not just the end of an era – it is a celebration for all those who have laughed, thought and lived with Luis. Anyone who wants to see him live again should seize the opportunity. There will be no encore. Luis from South Tyrol says: Pfiati. And thank you. Farewell tour with dates in three countries On his big farewell tour, Luis will also travel through Germany and Austria.
