Excellent Events in Innsbruck - By: Lukas Johannes

Innsbruck is a fantastic city, and when you are arranging your Innsbruck airport transfers you will probably be keen to know a bit more about what is going on in the city to enjoy your time there even more.

Fortunately, there is plenty to see and do in the city, but besides all of the excellent attractions, there are also a number of events you may want to take the time to visit if your Innsbruck airport transfers at the right time of year. Here are some of the top events throughout the year to mark down in your calendar.

Winter Sports

Austria is pretty big on winter sports, so it is no surprise that there are a number of events throughout the year with this theme. One of the best is the ski jumping competition that takes place at the Begisel Stadium. Another one you may want to check out is the Air & Style contest, one of the biggest events of the year, which attracts top snowboarders from around the world. With plenty of music and thousands of visitors, it is held, naturally, in the winter - usually in December or January.

New Orleans Festival

Bet you didn’t know that New Orleans has partnered up with Innsbruck did you? As a result, each summer in the city they hold a fantastic festival where locals and visitors can enjoy all kinds of music - including blues, jazz and much more. The city truly comes alive for the festival, so it could be a great time to visit if you’re a music lover.

Soundcity

If you like to party, then the Soundcity event should be one that you should attend. This takes place downtown, with many pubs, bars and clubs joining in with the fun presenting special nights of music. Dedicated buses are laid on to trawl around the city to take you to all of the different venues, and a number of world famous DJs get involved.

Traditional Fun

If you’re looking for something more traditional when you arrange your Innsbruck airport transfers, the Tyrolean Evenings with the Gundolf Family (from April to October) provide an excellent evening of entertainment. The shows are a great way to find out more about the traditions and customs of Austria. They have been going on for many decades, and you will find a combination of traditional dancing, music, clothing and even yodelling to really get a taste for the culture of the region.

Enjoy the Festivities

If any of these events sound like fun then you may want to plan that your Innsbruck airport transfers coincide with one of them. But whatever time of year you visit this marvellous city, you’ll be sure to have a fabulous time.
