Events at Lake Wörthersee are something very special. Because Lake Wörthersee offers the perfect stage, or rather the perfect backdrop for the staging of numerous national and international events.
The fact that these have settled in the region of Lake Wörthersee is anything but a coincidence. On the one hand you can only find this unique southern flair here, and on the other hand the trendy lifestyle as well as a unique arena for athletes, artists and stylish celebrations.
In summer, one event follows the next. For holidaymakers, trendy tigers and celebrities like Adabeis, they are obligatory dates where you have to be seen or simply be there.
Events at the Wörthersee
Highlights such as the legendary Fete Blanche, the Ironman Austria, Kärnten Läuft, Starnacht, the Velden promenade - they all attract thousands of guests to Lake Wörthersee and make it the "in" meeting point of the summer in Austria.
With the enjoyment festival See.Ess.Spiele and "Wörthersee car-free" the event season starts in April. With the Klagenfurt Old Town Magic, the colourful Pink Lake Festival and concerts by world stars in the Wörthersee Stadium, the summer events come to an end. The "palatable" Velden Autumn Festival, the Harley-Davidson Meeting and the Wörthersee Ultra Trail shape September before the lake becomes quiet. This is exactly when a special atmosphere begins at Lake Wörthersee, when the morning mist gently covers the lake. A mystical ambience, exactly matching the Wörthersee Thriller Festival, where the international thriller scene inspires the visitors with readings by well-known authors.
In addition to the loud sounds and often shrill events, it is also the country's quiet traditions, the harmonious interaction of the locals, which become the accompanying music of the summer in Austria's south. A wonderful example of this is the Marien Schiffsprozession on Lake Wörthersee on the occasion of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, which, like many others, is based on the ecclesiastical course of the year.
traditional costume parades, customs events and meanwhile also the
Wörthersee Advent are attractive events on Lake Wörthersee and attract visitors from home and abroad every year. Let yourself be inspired and spend an unforgettable stay in the Lake Wörthersee region!
