Published in Civ 6 Game Mechanics 2 mins read

In Civilization VI (Civ 6), music is represented by Great Works of Music, which are valuable cultural artifacts that contribute to a civilization's overall culture and tourism. These unique works are held within specific city buildings that feature dedicated music slots.

Buildings for Great Works of Music

To house and benefit from Great Works of Music, your cities need to construct specialized buildings. Each of these structures offers a certain number of music slots, allowing you to display and gain bonuses from the musical masterpieces acquired throughout your game. These buildings are crucial for players aiming for a Culture Victory, as they boost tourism and provide significant cultural output.

Here are the primary buildings where Great Works of Music can be stored:

Building Name Era Music Slots
Bolshoi Theatre Industrial Era 1
Broadcast Center Modern Era 1
Broadway Modern Era 1
Sydney Opera House Atomic Era 3
  • Bolshoi Theatre: This wonder provides one music slot and is available in the Industrial Era. It's a key early-to-mid-game structure for cultural expansion.
  • Broadcast Center: An upgraded version of the Radio Station, the Broadcast Center emerges in the Modern Era and offers one music slot, further enhancing a city's cultural output and appeal.
  • Broadway: As a Modern Era wonder, Broadway not only grants a music slot but also provides significant culture and tourism, reflecting its real-world influence on performing arts.
  • Sydney Opera House: This iconic Atomic Era wonder is particularly powerful, providing three music slots, making it an indispensable asset for maximizing cultural and tourism generation in the late game.

By strategically building these structures and filling their music slots with Great Works of Music obtained from Great Musicians, players can significantly boost their cultural influence and progress towards a Culture Victory.
