Wiener Festwochen / Vienna Festival 2025

What can a five-week art and culture festival like the Wiener Festwochen add to a city that is filled to the brim with cultural offers and urban initiatives? The Wiener Festwochen were established during the 1950s with the aim of making a contribution to opening Austria to the world. After the eras of Austrofascism and Nazism had isolated Vienna and Austria, it was important to reconnect with the world, to re-integrate the city and the country into the international discourse of art and culture.

The Free Republic is a place for an equally joyful and sincere conquest of the Res Publica, of public debates, institutions and spaces, of connection and exchange between artists, activists and the audience. Together, we will discuss the future and enact new visions in a wide range of participatory formats and expanded local and international partnerships.

For five weeks, the Free Republic will turn Vienna into an international laboratory of the arts and community, for: We owe the world a revolution!
