Autumn in Villach is all about culture. When autumn bathes Villach in warm colors and the days become shorter, the city's stages, galleries, and event halls come back to life. The cultural season begins, and with it a varied program that has something for every taste and every age. In the following blog post, you can take a look at the highlights that culture lovers can expect in Villach in the coming months!

 

THE CULTURAL SUBSCRIPTION - A MUST FOR CULTURE LOVERS

The city of Villach's cultural subscription is an absolute highlight for everyone enthusiastic about first-class theater and music productions. With an annually changing program that includes classical music, drama, and modern performance art, the subscription offers regular cultural enjoyment at the highest level.

Anyone who has already secured their subscription in the summer will enjoy a 25% discount compared to the box office, which includes constant seats at all events, and free entry to introductory events the following autumn. The subscriptions cover various categories: from symphony and orchestra evenings to ensembles and theater and music stages.

For those who would like to attend certain events, the optional subscription offers the opportunity to attend five events from different categories. There is also a trial subscription for newcomers - perfect for getting a first impression of the diverse program.

Anyone who missed registering for subscriptions this year can attend the diverse events as individual events, so no need to worry! Further information about the cultural offerings and tickets can be found online on the official website of the city of Villach.

 

THEATER FOR THE SMALLEST – THE CHILDREN’S SUBSCRIPTION

Even the youngest culture enthusiasts take advantage of Villach! The children's theater subscription offers age-appropriate plays for children aged two, four, and seven. Each performance takes viewers young and old on imaginative journeys - whether to the circus festival, to the world of animals or the stars.

With a subscription, children and their families can experience special theater moments and take part in several events at low cost. Groups and school classes also receive attractive discounts. Further information and maps are available at villach.at.

  • A special highlight for those interested in art and culture is the Long Night of Museums at the beginning of October. Here, museums and galleries throughout Austria open their doors late into the night and offer exciting tours, special exhibitions, and a diverse supporting program. A must for anyone who would like to get to know Villach's art scene or the cultural offerings of the surrounding cities more intensively.
