The story

Szene Openair in Lustenau

Szene Openair is a summer open-air music festival held on the banks of the Alter Rhein in Lustenau, Vorarlberg, founded in 1990. Focused on hip-hop, indie-folk and indie-rock with a growing Austro-pop presence, it has repeatedly hosted acts including Bilderbuch, Electric Callboy and Kraftklub, and draws a cross-border audience from the Austria-Switzerland-Liechtenstein-Germany region around Lake Constance.

Szene Openair has staked out a place on the Vorarlberg summer festival calendar since its founding in 1990, held each year on the banks of the Alter Rhein in Lustenau, a town on the Austrian side of the border with Switzerland and Liechtenstein near Lake Constance.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Szene Openair's riverside setting on the Alter Rhein, the waterway marking the Austrian-Swiss border at Lustenau, gives it a cross-border character reflected in its audience, drawn from four countries around the Bodensee region

02

The mystery stays covered

Its three-decade run since 1990 with a consistent focus on indie, hip-hop and alternative guitar music, rather than following broader festival trends toward electronic or schlager lineups, has made it a stable identity within Austria's crowded summer festival calendar
