Festivals
Vienna and Salzburg tend to hog the limelight as far as cultural festivals are concerned, but many provincial centres also host festivals of music and theatre that attract top international performers and enjoy a global reputation. There is also a full calendar of local religious festivals, many of which have their roots in rural folk customs that pre-date Christianity. Annual cultural festivals occupy an important place in the Austrian calendar. The Salzburger Festspiele (Salzburg Festival) is perhaps the most renowned - and least accessible - of a long list of festivals, ranging from classical music to operetta, from jazz to film. We've listed the most important of these, while further information on how to obtain tickets is included in the relevant sections of the text.
