Opening Event
WIENWOCHE has always been about celebrating diversity and creativity.
This year, our festival theme is THE NON- CITIZEN MOVEMENT, which highlights the importance of understanding and rejoicing in the challenges faced by activists and artists.
Our opening event LOUD STAGES, CROWDED SPACES is about inclusiveness, self-organizing, sharing struggles and last, but not least, celebration.
Working with the RAD Performance & Collectives, we are going to make some noise and shine a light on topics like urban geography, socio-economic divisions, and how small communities come together to fight for their rights and improve their living and working conditions.
And, of course, no party is complete without amazing acts. We have the incredible Steffi Stanković hosting the event, along with the sensational sounds of Authentically Plastic, the soul-stirring melodies of TRACE, the international rap sensation Chris Smalls, and the Latin American-Arab fusion of the duo La Machi b2b El Bairak.
At the same time, wienstation will be hosting an exhibition showcasing the history of WIENWOCHE in the space beside our stage. The public will have the opportunity to collect this year’s WIENWOCHE merchandise made by the wonderful artist Vivian Crespo Zurita and enjoy refreshments provided by wienstation during our event.
And finally, we are thrilled to announce that the incredible Spicemixers will be collaborating with WIENWOCHE to host our unforgettable afterparty at Rhiz!
So, together, let’s celebrate and make some noise!
