Wiener Kaiser Wiesn returns to Vienna's Prater

The Wiener Kaiser Wiesn is set to return to the Prater in Vienna from September 24 to October 11, 2026. Celebrating its fifth year, the event follows the theme ‘Das Leben is a Fest!’.

The festival will feature three main festival tents—the Gösser Zelt, Wiesbauer Zelt, and Nordic Spirit Kaiser Zelt—alongside five alpine huts and a ‘Wiesn-Dorf’ village. The program includes approximately 150 concerts ranging from folk music and Schlager to Austropop and international hits.

Culinary offerings will include Austrian classics such as grilled chicken, pork knuckle, and apple strudel, with vegetarian and vegan options also available. While daytime access to the festival grounds and village is free, tickets are required for evening events in the main tents.
