WHAT’S HOT?
- American Football European championship – Will be held at the UPC Arena Graz in 2014.
- La Strada Street Theatre Festival – Pedestrians dancing furiously, city hikers on urban discovery tours, energy-laden popular productions, phenomenal theatre of masks going beyond all physical limits, puppet shows that make us marvel, thrilling productions for kids… all of this as well as unusual encounters in streetcars and on trains at this festival.
- Long Table of Graz – imagine sitting down at a festively decorated table and enjoying a delicious dinner with matching wines and musical entertainment, accompanied by 700 other guests, in the heart of Graz. This is what happens at the long table.
- The spectacular architecture of Graz Kunsthaus leaves nobody cold. Whilst it’s not common for existing, traditional urban buildings to sit so perfectly next to breathtaking new architecture, with the setting of this museum of contemporary art in Graz it’s definitely the case.
- UNESCO City of Design is a timeless attribute to a city, not only regarding existing design in Graz, but also entailing a responsibility to implement design into everyday life. Graz will stay a City of Design and thus become a constant member of a worldwide network of creative cities
DID YOU KNOW?
That on December 1, 1999, this exceptional city centre, which until the present day had only a few examples of modern architecture, became a UNESCO world cultural heritage site and that 2003 was one of the most significant years in the city’s history when it was named “Cultural Capital of Europe” by the EU Ministries of Culture, with a colourful cultural programme that attracted visitors from all over the world.
BEST INCENTIVE IDEA:
Schlossberg tour, up above the rooftops of Graz. No tour of the city would be complete without that wonderful view from the Schlossberg hill, looking out over the unique tiled roofscape to views of the mountains, hills and wine country, weather permitting of course.
