Set in the grandeur of nature and inspiration, a programme brimming with joie de vivre unfolds, touching the heart and the senses. Celebrate 100 years of theatrical tradition with the Reichenau Festival, and experience a cultural programme in a class of its own at 1,000 metres above sea level at Kultur.Sommer.Semmering. Immerse yourself in an imperial ambience at the Orangery of Wartholz Castle during concerts featuring top-class performers or at the summer cinema, or experience a varied programme spanning different genres at the Reichenau Cultural Summer at Reichenau Castle.
Since 2026, the Semmering-Rax region has been enriched by two new venues: in the Hermannswörth Concert Hall, audiences can enjoy up-and-coming young artists in a remarkable synthesis of architecture and acoustics in Prein an der Rax. In the former church of Hirschwang, Phillip Hochmair launches the innovative cultural concept of RaxworX with his staged performance “Jedermann an der Rax”.
