Fö N Festival. 24 – 29 September 2026, Innsbruck / Tyrol

Its third edition is not a traditional conference. Nor is it a hype-driven show about the future. It is a festival for creative exchange, lively debate, fresh perspectives, and genuine encounters—bringing together science, business, technology, design, and art.

For three days, St. Bartlmä in Innsbruck will become a venue for talks, concerts, workshops, and performances. And above all: for moments that will stay with you.

The Highlights

International voices. Unique experiences. And formats that don’t really fit into any category. And that’s just the way it should be.

From the festival opening featuring Scientist of the Year Francesca Ferlaino, astrophysicist, science journalist, and TV host Harald Lesch, and actor Rainer Bock, to designer Jian Ping He, Monobrother, Woschdog, workshops, and a Live-Music Sunrise Breakfast: The Fö N Festival combines intellectual space with a festival atmosphere, science with art, big questions with surprising encounters. – Not everything fits into a single category, but that’s exactly how it should be.

A special place.

St. Bartlmä – where the past, the present, and brand-new ideas come together.

The former St. Bartlmä industrial site is one of Innsbruck’s most exciting cultural venues. For three days, its halls, courtyards, and interstitial spaces will become an open space for reflection and encounter, dedicated to creativity, culture, and questions about the future. – A place with nooks, crannies, and history – and precisely for that reason the perfect setting for a festival that aims to reveal new perspectives.
