Film Festival at Vienna’s Rathausplatz
28 June to 31 August
Culture, Cuisine & Summer Vibes at the Film Festival!
For 35 years, this open-air highlight has attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors every year – and for good reason. This summer, one of Vienna’s most beautiful squares will once again transform into an urban living room, featuring world cuisine and musical film highlights on a giant screen. Whether it’s a date night, after-work drinks, or a family evening – there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
Kids opera festival
Since the introduction of the Kids Opera Festival in 2018, young visitors have also been at the centre of the Film Festival. A selected programme with age-appropriate opera films and popular kids’ music productions, an LED screen suitable for daylight hours along with outstanding acoustics invite visitors to join in on a musical journey of adventure free of charge every Friday at 5 pm.

How to get there

Underground:
U2 Rathaus
In summer 2025, Wiener Linien will be replacing tracks and points on the Kärntner Ring, Schubertring and Universitätsring. This will result in closures and detour on streetcar lines 1, 2, 71 and D. The underground line U2 will offer a good alternative.
All information about the closure can be found here: Wiener Linien
