Just dance by the waterside @ Donaukanaltreiben 2018

Big-ass festival on the Donaukanal

Donaukanaltreiben 2018

When: THU—SUN, May 31–June 3
Where: Various locations along the Donaukanal (check out the program, here)
Entry: free!

It’s that time again – the Donaukanaltreiben is back and it’s bringing with it all of the live music performances, markets, food trucks it always delivers. It seems to grow every year, and so does its popularity. You often hear people on the Donaukanaltreiben weekend asking – ‘have you been down to the canal? you can’t move! there’s so many people!’ This is one of the greatest free music festivals this city serves up. Check out their website, so you can start planning what acts you’ll camp by the stage for.

Tip: bring your own drinks as the queues at most of the venues along the canal are enough to make you jump into the water!

Recommended if you like:  drinking in the sun, free concerts, following the smell of weed, dangling your legs over the edge of the canal, being part of the crowd
