The pandemic has demanded a lot of patience from all music clubs – but now the big 53rd Bregenzerwald district music festival can take place in Lingenau. “Zämmko” was the motto this weekend for 50 music clubs from the Bregenzerwald and the surrounding area, and the big parade took place on Sunday.
The 53rd Bregenzerwald District Music Festival was finally able to take place in Lingenau – because it had been organized before the coronavirus pandemic. “We are very happy,” says festival organizer Engelbert Beck from the Lingenau Music Association: “We planned two years and waited four years because we had to postpone it twice. And now we are glad that it might finally take place.” Numerous guests attended the three-day music festival this weekend.
