The festival site is located at the northern end of Wiesen and covers an area of approximately 1.2 hectares. The site presents itself as a modern event location with developed infrastructure in a valley surrounded by forests.
The most striking thing is the characteristic tent that houses the main stage. It is a unique steel cable construction in which no columns, cables or supporting elements can disturb the view of the stage. It offers 4,000 visitors protection from sun and rain and opens on one side to the open-air area. There is space for a further 4,000 guests, bringing the total capacity of the festival site to 8,000. The open-air area is slightly sloping and flows into the foothills of the adjacent forest. Right next door you will find a wide range of restaurants and many cozy places to enjoy, browse and chat.
Our culinary offering ranges from Burgenland delicacies (fire spot, bread soup, etc.) to vegetarian Indian dishes and vegan burgers to classics such as Dukaten chips (these are our infamous round fries!) and schnitzel rolls. But of course that’s not all! Our vegetarian and vegan offerings are constantly growing. And of course something sweet shouldn’t be missing… Just taste it, there’s something delicious to discover on every corner!
The park and camping area is a few hundred meters from the festival site. We consciously decided to make this area as natural as possible. Blackberry hedges and overgrown mounds of earth serve as boundaries. Nevertheless, it is equipped with shower and toilet facilities that are connected to the local sewer network and maintained by our cleaning staff.
