Culinary events

What could be better than the lively people of Eastern Styria? A party with plenty of good food and drink, of course! Culinary events in Austria’s garden provide a wealth of choices for tasting and lingering.

From the Apple Blossom Festival to the “Sturmwanderung”, from the fresh springtime Dandelion Festival to the Culinary Autumn and from the Street Food Market to the “Happerl-Essen”. Eastern Styria is that and much more: A culinary experience all year long.

A vidám eseményeket úgy kell megünnepelni, ahogy jönnek.
