Fair and concerts – police take stock: ‘It was noticeably quiet’

Date:

The director now took stock of the activities after the big event weekend in Vienna – with the Coldplay concerts, the Neustifter Kirtag and the Stammersdorfer Weintage, which were attended by a total of more than 400,000 people. Of these, 250,000 people attended the four Coldplay concerts in the Ernst Happel Stadium alone.

It was a weekend full of superlatives in Vienna: around 400,000 people attended the four Coldplay concerts and the Neustifter Kirtag. The Stammersdorf Wine Days and the Bundesliga football match Austria against LASK also took place. Interior Minister Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) and Xenia Zauner, head of the Vienna police department, took stock on Monday. From a police perspective, this is extremely positive.

“It was an intense weekend for the police. The colleagues faced great tasks. But there could be peaceful and happy celebrations,” Karner explains. Between 400 and 600 police officers were deployed for this.

In total, there were 62 criminal complaints. These included property crimes, bodily harm, fights and a sexual offense, Zauner reported. In addition, around 270 administrative complaints were filed and five people were administratively detained. It was said that there is currently no new information about the alleged rape on the sidelines of the Neustifter Kirtag.
