The jubilee was celebrated in an exquisite setting, as the prominent Arthur Rubinstein Philharmonic Hall in Łódź provided the venue for the concert organized on the occasion. The regularly held soirees with music, most often classical, but occasionally a bit more lighthearted, began more than 30 years ago because Professor Jan Krysinski, a long-time rector of Lodz University of Technology, brought his vision to life. Named Music at Lodz University of Technology, for many years, the concerts were held in the Mirror Hall of the Scheibler Villa at 266 Piotrkowska Street, and have now been moved to the TUL Performing Arts Auditorium. Succeeding rectors took patronage of the concerts. The current rector, professor Krzysztof Jóźwik, was the host of the jubilee evening.
