Right in the historic gardens of a Viennese palace, a major open-air festival called Yogajunkies —dedicated to mindful movement, mindfulness, and relaxation —will open its doors at the end of July. You can look forward to a packed program, with over 80 classes and workshops taking place across a total of eight areas. In addition to classic flows, there are also trends like Steel Mace Yoga and sweat-inducing Techno Yoga, ensuring that every guest finds the right practice for them.
Diversity from cacao to ice bathing
The festival kicks off on Saturday with a communal cacao ceremony, though spots are limited to 300. Afterward, activities spread out across the lawn, where those seeking tranquility can unwind with Yin Yoga accompanied by live music. If, on the other hand, you want to really challenge your body, AcroYoga and a guided ice bath are on the current schedule.

International guests and vegan treats
Since the event is designed for the whole family, the Kids Fun Zone offers free admission for children up to age 16. While the little ones enjoy face painting and crafts, you can refuel in the Gourmet Garden with vegan treats and fresh coffee. Finally, on Sunday evening, the big musical highlight awaits, as British singer-songwriter Sam Garrett will perform a two-hour closing concert there.
Creativity in the Castle Gardens
Aside from the movement on the mat, the Magic Lab invites you to creative workshops. There, you can make your own mala beads or prepare healthy, vegan treats. Since a grove of old trees in the center of the park exudes a special sense of tranquility, talks on mental health will also take place here.
Although the concert is included in the ticket price, separate evening tickets are also available for €65. The regular day ticket costs €95, while the pass for the entire weekend is available for €139. As a result, you should decide in advance whether you want to spend just one day or the entire summer weekend in the great outdoors. Ticket sales are already well underway, so it’s definitely worth checking out the website.
