Catch one of these – the first of the open air markets

This city has an insatiable hunger for open-air markets, and it seems that they’ll be a load of them happening this year, with already several popping up in our calendars during April. Check them out below:

Ostermarkt Schloß Schönbrunn 2019

When: April 6 – April 23
Where: Schloss Schönbrunn

The famous Schönbrunn Palace and its vast and beautiful garden area are hosting more than 60 market stands offering their handmade and crafted goods and other neat Easter stuff. But if you’re like us, you’ll be more interested in the wine and food on offer that you can consume in an idyllic setting with the palace as your backdrop and the sun on your face (hopefully).

Flohmarkt im Liechtensteinpark 7–8 April 2018

When: SAT–SUN, April 6–7
Where: Liechtensteinpark

The annual flea market that spreads itself in the gardens behind the Lichtenstein Palace is back again for another weekend. On Saturday and Sunday, stands will be scattered about the gardens selling all kinds of old, second-hand stuff. So pop on your top hat (these are royal gardens, you know) and if you don’t have one, you most probably can buy one at the market.

Vintage Möbelmarkt am Brillantengrund

When: SAT, April 6, 11am–6pm
Where: Hotel am Brillantengrund

The courtyard of the funky canary yellow hotel and kinda’ event venue, Hotel am Brillantengrund will be stuffed with vintage furniture in all shapes and sizes. If you’re looking to pimp your flat with some pieces that look and smell like they’ve been living in your grandmother’s place for the last 100 years, pop into this lovely hotel, and feast on some of the mama of the house’s delicious Pinoy cooking.

Flohmarkt Obkirchergasse

When: SAT, April 21, 8am–6pm
Where: Obkirchengasse

What’s spring without visiting the massive flea market on the 19th district’s Obkirchengasse. On a sunny spring day (we hope) private sellers will set up their stands of secondhand stuff and the business along the street will also spill onto the pavement. It’s a family affair (so no naked cowboy stunts again) and there will be face painting, a small kids flea market and a clown named Clown Poppo (which somehow we found to be a very creepy name) doing his thing. Come for the secondhand stuff, stay for the clown.

WAMP Designmarkt

When: SAT, April 28
Where: In front of the Museumsquartier

Everybody together jumping into the air at the same time, and yell – WAMP! Vienna’s open-air international designer market is back! Spring weather doesn’t only mean the birds and other furry creatures, including humans, are making sweet tender love in the trees, but also that the open air events that we love to return. WAMP brings a whole bunch of Eastern European and local designers together in a great atmosphere in front of Vienna’s MQ. There’s also usually a few food trucks supplying some tasty street food.
