In 2026, CULTIVA will feature a new open-air section. Running parallel to the trade show, the outdoor area of the Wiener Werkshallen will transform into a festival zone on all three days, offering music, food, drinks, and a laid-back daytime festival vibe. Each day of the festival will have its own unique character.
With Techno Vienna, Du Tanzt Mich Mal, and Magika, three established hosts from the Viennese techno scene will each take charge of one day of the outdoor festival. They’ll bring their own DJs, their individual styles, and their communities with them.


While CULTIVA is in full swing inside, music plays outside. Each day of the fair, a different host takes the stage at the Outdoor Stage, bringing a fresh sound and a new vibe. Surrounding the stage is a spacious chill-out area with covered spaces and seating. It’s the perfect spot to take a break between the fair, the music, and the program—or simply to linger outside a little longer.
Festivals make you hungry. In the outdoor area, various food trucks offer the perfect snacks to keep you going. There are also cool drinks at the bar and plenty of space to eat, drink, and enjoy the festival together. Whether you’re taking a quick break from the festival action or a longer break between sets, the outdoor area becomes a gathering spot right in the heart of CULTIVA.

The Wiener Werkshallen provide CULTIVA 2026 with the space for a completely new concept: more outdoor activities, more music, and more opportunities to experience the fair even outside the exhibition halls. For the first time at CULTIVA, cannabis culture, community, and the trade show will come together for a three-day outdoor festival right in the heart of Vienna. The outdoor festival will take place alongside CULTIVA from October 2–4, 2026, and is included in the trade show ticket.
