“Realistic Dreams”
Festival of Regions 2025
13 – 22 June 2025
Braunau am Inn

How much potential is there in dreams?
We say: a whole lot.
The Festival of Regions 2025 invites you to explore boundaries, transform ideas into concrete projects and dare to try something new together. Not aloof, but down-to-earth. Not unworldly, but at the centre of life. Not ‘more of the same’. But to see a city, a region with different eyes.

For the first time in its history, the Festival of Regions is concentrating on the Innviertel region, with Braunau am Inn at its centre. A region full of contrasts that becomes the protagonist of artistic experiments and exciting encounters. International artists meet local initiatives. Regulars’ tables meet visions. The audience becomes an active part of the event.

Since 1993, the Festival of Regions has been one of the most renowned art and culture festivals in Austria. Every two years, it shows that the major social issues – such as home, work, migration and cohesion – can and must be dealt with artistically, especially in rural areas.

Each festival tells its own story. Local cultural actors and international artists develop projects that are created directly on site and have a lasting impact on a region. Encounters, discussions and participation take centre stage.

In 2025, the Innviertel will become a place for artistic debates between past and future, everyday life and visions.
