Franz Josef 182 Next Month

As an annual event, Bad Ischl celebrates Austria's Diamond Emperor, His Late Imperial and Royal Majesty Franz Josef I, around his birthday. This year is his 182nd, which is in exactly one month – August 18. The festival takes place August 15 thru 18. More details can be found here.

Some videos from last year's event (in German, a lot of negative and careful interviewees on bringing the monarchy back but also an interview with the SGA):







There is also the Mitteleuropean People's Festival August 17 thru 19.

There may also be other events, but the Bad Ischl festival is arguably the main one.
