The largest open -air festival in Europe started on Friday with free access, a good mood and with great emotions. This year under the motto “Your Island. Real moments.” As always live the “Kroon” live on the site
A Danube island festival is being made to measure: on Friday, hundreds of thousands of visitors flowed to the nearly five kilometer area between North and Reichsbrücke. The weather god also played a part. There was a perfect festival weather with lots of sunshine and pleasant 26 degrees.
The Belgian singer started this time. He inspired the big inclusion concert at the festival stage from 10 a.m. on Thursday evening with the reinterpretation of the Bizet Opera “Carmen” in collaboration with the Vienna Volksoper, a pre-opening on the island took place with a large audience and thunderous applause.
At 3 p.m. Mayor Michael Ludwig (Spö), with almost all members of the city council, visited the island and the festival center. “The Danube island festival is much more than just a festival – it is a living symbol for cohesion and diversity that distinguishes Vienna. For more than 40 years it has been Veens Vienna from all districts and far beyond,” said the city manager.
The domestic music scene was also strongly represented on the first day. While the Nockis and Jazz Gitti were happy with the Schlagerbühne, the classic works of the Waltz King Johann Strauss met the beats of Camo & Krooked on the festival stage. Supported by Christian Kolonovits and the Vienna Symphonics. Before that, the German band Milky Chance brought a relief to the island. In the “Krone” area at the “Krone” trailer, everything is about a good mood and great prizes on the Fortune wheel. So stop, play and win!
