Calle Libre: Meidling turns into an art paradise!

The twelfth Calle Libre Street Art Festival lets the streets of Meidling shine in bright colors under the motto "Youtopia" in August. Jakobs Kattner, the founder of the festival, chose an exciting place: Meidling, where this year there are particularly creative wall designs. From 16 to August 23, the surrounding area of ​​the Meidlinger Markt and the track garden becomes a scene of large -format works of art to reflect the personal vision of a better future.

The festival starts on August 16 with comedy shows in the foodhall, where talents such as Aladdin Jameel, Bianca Lala and Tito Perez will create a good atmosphere. The art activities then begin from August 18 to 22, with renowned artists from all over the world, like the Argentine Elian Chali and the Portuguese Mariana Santos, are expected. The local artist Mariella Lehner will also create a special work of art at Arndtstraße 30.

creative ideas and interactive experiences

The tradition of the Calle Libre Festival goes back to the tenth edition in 2023. At that time it took place in Ottakring and celebrated the topic of "transformation". Artists converted walls in the 16th district into impressive representations that reflected important social and ecological issues. Over the years, the festival has not only contributed to the beautification of Vienna, but also initiated significant discussions about social changes. Artists such as Aphenoah and Gera1 created works created that addressed the cultural diversity and challenges of life, while installations shaped and inspired the change in the cityscape.

The Calle Libre Festival is much more than just art on walls. It has developed into a catalyst for social discourses and shows how transformative strength can be experienced through art. The upcoming event in Meidling promises to stay true to this tradition and to further enrich the streets of Vienna.

If you don't want to miss the exciting developments and creative forces in Vienna and especially in the Meidling district, you should definitely note appointments in August. Artistic experiences and cultural highlights await visitors.
