We want to welcome as many people as possible to be part of the Free Republic of Vienna. That’s why we are committed to identifying and gradually removing barriers – on, in front of, and behind the stage, as well as in our online presence. As a festival, we are continuously trying to improve and very much appreciate feedback, questions, and suggestions. Feel free to reach out to us via email at barrierefreiheit@festwochen.at or by phone at +43 1 589 22 860.
