What impact has the Vienna Festival had on your life? Which moments were particularly memorable? Which experiences do you look back on fondly? To mark its 75th anniversary, the Vienna Festival and the House of Austrian History invite you to join in collecting and sharing memories.
One festival, one city, over 1,000 venues and 75 years of history. With the ivie app, you can discover Vienna in a whole new way and, stop by stop, learn how the Vienna Festival has left its mark on the city as its most influential cultural event. From the annual opening on Rathausplatz, through the occupation of Arena 76, to the creation of the MuseumsQuartier in its current form, the Festival Walk recounts legendary performances, productions and scandals.
Experience the major solo exhibition dedicated to the work of the visionary German radical artist Christoph Schlingensief at the MAK until 13 September.
Alongside the container-based action Bitte liebt Österreich – Erste österreichische Koalitionswoche (Please Love Austria – First Austrian Coalition Week), the exhibition presents other key works by this exceptional artist, such as the installation Church of Fear, and impressively demonstrates how Schlingensief’s radically personal art, oscillating between provocation and artistic confidence, continues to unsettle and inspire even today.
For 75 years, the visual world of the Vienna Festival has been an integral part of the city’s cultural life.
To mark this anniversary, we are joining forces with the MAK to showcase around 80 iconic campaigns from Wienbibliothek's collection at City Hall until 20 September. Do pop in and immerse yourself in 75 years of history, Tuesday to Sunday!
