Festival Feeling

We call our opening event „Marktschreierei“ (market yelling). This is a very relaxed event at a farmers market in the middle of Graz so you will get to know the chill styrian life style. Have a glas of wine, get in touch with the other groups and hop on stage – if you like – at this open mic event.


Apply also for our payed concert series vokal.total.outofgraz! Get to see more of our beautiful countrysides and spread the spirit of vokal.total in different locations. You want to know what happens after the official events? We do know how to party for sure and there will be many throughout the week!
