Don't miss the spectacular Vienna Festival during May and June - a feast of music, drama and celebration!
Culture vultures should look no further than Vienna this Spring. For six weeks over May and June (14th May – 20th June 2010) the Austrian capital plays host to one of the world’s leading cultural events, the Vienna Festival, or Wiener Festwochen, as it has for some 60 years now.
Kicked off by a spectacular inauguration ceremony in Vienna’s City Hall Square, a free open-air event set against the backdrop of a beautifully illuminated City Hall, the festival line-up goes on to include an impressive 51 productions from 23 countries, totalling 175 performances and 70 concerts by international orchestras, top conductors and first-class soloists.
As well as music there is a dynamic and thought-provoking performing arts programme, workshops on dance, drama and music for young people aged 16 and over, lectures, films and video shows.
Combine your festival visit with a language course and you really will be immersing yourself in the culture and the buzz of what promises to be a exhilarating few weeks. Or go the whole hog and book yourself onto the German & Music course - the perfect way to get into the spirit of the festival!
