From July 1st to September 3rd, 2023, top-class productions from the fields of classical music, opera, jazz and pop will be presented at the “Film Festival” on Rathausplatz over 65 days on a 300 m² outdoor screen.

Europe’s largest culture and culinary festival

Locals and tourists can enjoy top classical, opera, jazz and pop productions without prior reservation and with free admission. Also in the 33nd year, a top-class program was put together: In the classical area there are outstanding productions from the Vienna State Opera such as “The Magic Flute”, “Tosca” or “La Traviata” while jazz, pop & rock fans can choose from Pink Floyd, Queen, Sting, Sam Smith or Falco and numerous other highlights. The Children’s Opera Festival starts every Friday at 5 p.m. in the Rathauspark, a live-DJ ensures chilled vibes in the gastro area from Thursday to Saturday evenings, while the popular jazz brunch provides relaxed sounds on Sundays. You can download the complete program from the website.
