Festival & Balls


Rund um die Burg - Burgtheater

Rund um die Burg (September)

The idea is simple. Put up a spacious tent in front of the beautiful marble facade of the Viennese Burgtheater and invite famous Austrian writers to read from their oeuvre. As there are many successful Austrian writers you might need more time than you thought at first... Doesn't matter. Stick to the plan, anyway.

Since more than 10 years the festival provides an excellent overview of Austrian literary life and a chance listen to more than 40 authors for free! The marathon reading is scheduled to take exactly 24 hours and you can check in and out whenever you want to.
