Summer in Vienna
16 May – 29 June
The Wiener Festwochen transforms Vienna into a global stage for groundbreaking theatre, music, and performance art. For five weeks, artists from around the world challenge the norm, provoke thought, and celebrate creativity in unexpected forms.
It’s bold, boundary-pushing, and brilliantly Viennese.
26 June – 10 August
From June 26 to August 10, Vienna becomes a stage for all. Kultursommer Wien brings over 2,000 artists to parks, courtyards, and public squares across the city — offering a summer full of free concerts, dance, theatre, cabaret, and more.
From jazz in a leafy park to contemporary dance under the evening sun, this city-wide festival turns every corner of Vienna into a space for surprise, connection, and joy.
It’s diverse, it’s vibrant, and it’s for everyone.
10 July – 10 August
The ImpulsTanz Festival brings Vienna to life with powerful performances, cutting-edge choreography, and dance that pushes every limit. From international stars to rising talents, stages across the city pulse with energy, movement, and emotion.
Take a seat—or join in. This is dance in all its forms.
24 – 27 July
From July 24 to 27, Vienna’s Karlsplatz becomes the beating heart of Austria’s pop scene. Popfest Wien brings together the boldest voices in local and European pop, from experimental newcomers to genre-defying icons — all in one free, open-air festival.
Expect late-night sets, lakeside stages, and a crowd that comes for the music and stays for the moment.
It’s raw, real, and unapologetically urban.
