Ars Electronica Festival

Festival for Art, Technology and Society

At the next Ars Electronica from September 9 to 13, 2020!

Experience how new technologies are affecting our lives! Meet people who are contributing to making our future worth living! Meet artists and scientists from all over the world, and be fascinated, surprised and inspired! We hope to see you, from September 9 to 13, at Ars Electronica 2020!

Harbor dock, industrial sute, mining tunnel, monastery, former mail distribution center – every Ars Electronica takes place outside, in the city. 2020 brings a premiere: For the first time the Kepler Gardens at the JKU campus will be the hotspot of the festival!

Industrial city. University town. UNESCO City of Media Arts. 206,000 people live, 200,000 work in Linz. Technology, natural sciences, art and design are among the most important location factors – an environment that ideally promotes Ars Electronica and, conversely, constantly receives new impulses from it. The only constant in Linz is change; everyone involved is looking to the future. The art and creative scene is part of this dynamic and has shaped the city’s development for decades.
