The Rupertikirtag (Friday, 20 to Tuesday, 24 September 2019) is a fixed event in Salzburg's calendar of events. Its actual name is "Salzburger Domweihfest zu Ruperti," but it has become established linguistically in the short form "Rupertikirtag." The festive day in the old town is equally popular with visitors and locals from the city and the province of Salzburg because the Rupertikirtag in autumn sees itself as a traditional and down-to-earth to the high musical culture of the various Salzburg festivals during the summer.

The Salzburg Festival is already an institution in the international festival calendar - this year it will take place from 20 July to 31 August 2019. The city's reputation is anchored in the minds (and hearts) of the people of Salzburg as the European Capital of Culture. And rightly so, because the internationally renowned and esteemed festival took place for the first time back in 1920.

The festival year 2019 once again offers a great deal of musical variety and a full program that Salzburg visitors should not have missed. At Whitsun, from 7 to 10 June 2019, the Salzburg Whitsun Festival will take place. On these days, the city of Salzburg will once again be completely dedicated to classical music and the corresponding social hustle and bustle.

The Salzburg Easter Festival is undoubtedly one of the most renowned and well-known cultural highlights in Europe and around the world. They were founded in 1967 by none other than Maestro Herbert von Karajan, whose idea was to establish the Salzburg Easter Festival as a (musical and social) complement to the Salzburg Festival!

With all modesty: Salzburg is indeed worth a visit at any time. Because there's always something going on here that you shouldn't miss - apart from the beautiful days, evenings and nights in the old streets and alleys of the old town.

Anyone who claims that Paris is the only city of love has not yet taken a closer look at Salzburg. Perhaps this is even quite good because in this way the Mozart city on the Salzach is and remains an insider tip!

Capture the charm and beauty of Salzburg in just 24 hours? What sounds like an uncomfortable sightseeing marathon is, in reality, a slow drive through the historic (old) city on the Salzach.
