City Festival Völkermarkt
Singers take center stage
Music will dominate the town festival in Völkermarkt from Thursday, May 30 to Sunday, June 2. One choir is even celebrating its 100th anniversary.
Music is the most beautiful language in the world that everyone understands," says Lukas Joham, choirmaster of MGV Scholle, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. This anniversary will also be the focus of the Völkermarkt town festival.
Mayor Markus Lakounigg: "The Lower Main Square will be a stage for singers and musicians for four days. There will be unique cultural and traditional performances. Of course, there will also be plenty of culinary delights." Modernity and tradition meet in a special way.
"We're hoping for good weather, because everything takes place outdoors," says Peter Wedenig, the city's vice mayor. Today (6 pm) it's "Jugend singt!", Friday (5 pm) artists such as Popwal, Ina Regen and Folkshilfe will get the audience going. Hundreds of singers will take part in the choir summit on Saturday (5 pm). "Nine choirs will refresh you with their singing", says Julian Waibel from the Wirtschaftsverein.
