The 2026 Summer Season has opened. It was a wonderful evening, which was given a real boost by Sasha Waltz’s iconic piece "Travelogue I – Twenty to Eight".
This year’s SOMMERSZENE opens with Sasha Waltz’s iconic dance classic *Travelogue I – Twenty to Eight*. From 8 to 23 June, fourteen productions await you, including five Austrian premieres and two world premieres, covering a wide artistic spectrum. The thematic perspectives, aesthetic languages and stylistic forms impressively demonstrate the socio-political urgency of choreography and performance.This year’s SOMMERSZENE opens with Sasha Waltz’s iconic dance classic *Travelogue I – Twenty to Eight*.

Die SOMMERSZENE Salzburg zeigt sich mit einem neuen visuellen Auftritt – entwickelt vom Salzburger Brand Design Studio Solid & Bold. Die überarbeitete grafische Linie gibt dem internationalen Performing Arts Festival eine eigene Bühne und macht es als Marke klarer, prägnanter und langfristig wiedererkennbar.
Von 8. bis 23. Juni erwarten Sie vierzehn Produktionen, darunter fünf österreichische Erstaufführungen und zwei Premieren, die einen weiten künstlerischen Bogen aufspannen. Die thematischen Perspektiven, die ästhetischen Sprachen und stilistischen Formen zeigen in beeindruckender Weise die gesellschaftspolitische Dringlichkeit von Choreographie und Performance.
