"V is for loVe": Faber, Sodl & Co open Vienna Festival Weeks

"Even crazier, more colorful, and more combative" - this is how the Vienna Festival Weeks announced their opening at the Rathausplatz in this year's program booklet.

For the increased craziness on May 16 under the title "V is for loVe," the Swiss singer-songwriter Faber, his Austrian colleague Sodl, and the capital's songwriting legend Der Nino aus Wien, among others, are expected to provide entertainment. This was announced by the Festival Weeks on Wednesday.

Soap&Skin at the Vienna Festival Weeks

In addition to the Mozart Choir and the Jauntaler Trachtenkapelle Loibach, singer Soap&Skin is also expected to create a lively atmosphere at the square. After all, the Festival Weeks promise a "great, poetic, and political evening against fascism, nationalism, and bad vibes," where pop and brass music, opera and folk music come together. It has been known for some time that the US multimedia artist Laurie Anderson and the German ESC winner Nicole ("A Little Peace") will also be part of the event. ORF and 3sat will broadcast the opening of the five-week Festival Weeks series.
