Comment from John Reality

Easily the biggest annual event in the capital of the westernmost state in Austria, the Bregenzer Festspiele, or Bregenz Festival, features performances of famous operas on the largest floating stage in the world. You may have noticed this iconic structure in 2008’s Quantum of Solace. In any case, it is truly a sight to behold.

Adventurous architecture combines with beautiful natural scenery to create a unique performance venue and an exciting festival that you won’t forget. During this popular month-long event, the city’s modest population of less than 30,000 swells to a staggering 200,000. Needless to say, you’ll want to make hotel reservations a good deal in advance. If it is peace and quiet that you’re after, steer clear of Bregenz from mid-July to mid-August.
