UNSAFE+SOUNDS 2026 – The level sunlight still warms walls

Unsafe+Sounds, the annual Vienna-based festival, returns in September with a kaleidoscopic programme, offering a multifaceted view of contemporary music. Since 2015, the international festival has been one of Austria’s most important platforms for advanced experimental and electronic music. In its 12th edition, Unsafe+Sounds once again dedicates itself to outstanding artistic positions beyond the mainstream.

With its bridge between high and subculture, experimental and club music, sound and discourse, Unsafe+Sounds has carved out a distinctive position within the Austrian festival landscape. Since its beginnings, the festival has focused on making visible the connections between social tendencies and contemporary aesthetics. It questions how the world is perceived and experienced, and turns its attention to the transformative potential hidden within sound.
