Motto for Vienna Danube Island Festival 2025 was Presented
The 42nd Vienna Danube Island Festival is casting its shadow ahead: From June 20 to 22, Europe's largest open-air festival offers more than 600 hours of programming on 16 stages. In addition to music, entertainment, and culinary delights, democracy is also in focus this year, as Austria celebrates 80 years of the Republic, 70 years of the State Treaty, and 30 years of EU membership. But not only the new Democracy Island is supposed to attract the audience, but also a pre-opening before the official start of the festival.
Vienna Danube Island Festival 2025 with a Focus on Democracy and Cooperation with the People's Opera
For this, they are relying on a cooperation with the Vienna People's Opera. What exactly is to be expected on the island on Thursday evening, like the rest of the program, will be announced in the spring. However, the motto has already been fixed: "Your Island. Real Moments". The festival embodies "those values that make up Vienna: social cohesion, active participation, cultural diversity, and respectful coexistence", SPÖ state party secretary Barbara Novak was quoted on Monday in a press release. At the focus on democracy, visitors should be able to "inform, participate and exchange ideas".
