What's free in Austria
There's no reason why your holiday to Austria shouldn't be an affordable
one. Austria’s cities offer a host of festivals, museums, galleries, sights
and activities that are absolutely free of charge. Here are our top 'free'
tips!
Entrance to most churches, markets, gardens, parks and galleries in
Austria: indulge in great architecture, art, shopping and history!
Because of Austria`s long tradition many folklore festivals take
place througout the year - particularly outside the cities - at which
Austrian culture and lifestyle can be experienced first hand. Some of them
are listed in the cities’ sections underneath, but really, there are so
many, that we cannot list them all here, so just ask upon your arrival
what’s coming up next.
Up to the age of 6, children travel for free on public transport. In
many Austrian cities up to 4 children up to the age of 15 travel for free
with accompaniment. If you are travelling with kids do always enquire
whether there are any special reductions!
From late November onwards, Christmas Markets in many cities and
towns all over Austria get you into a festive and cheerful mood!
The perfect way to usher in the New Year: Vienna, Salzburg, Innsbruck and
many other major towns in Austria turn their old city centres into open-air
ballrooms. On New Year's Eve, numerous revellers watch the fireworks and
waltz into the New Year!
Almost for free: There are a number of discount cards with attractive
value-added opportunities. You can explore the splendor and cultural
delights of the cities with significant discounts on public transport,
sightseeing, shopping, dining, etc.
