Events in Innsbruck
Four Hills Tournament

Ski jumpers zing skyward from the Bergisel Olympic take-off ramp in this, the internationally renowned Four Hills Tournament’s third round.
Air & Style
February
Mad skills are on show every year at Air & Style, the biggest snowboarding competition in Europe. Big-name bands, parties and other events also entertain the tens of thousands of spectators at Bergisel.
Golden Roof Challenge
June
Athletes attempt to pole vault as high as the famous three-storied Golden Roof balcony, which fittingly once served as the Emperor’s royal box for watching tournaments below.
Innsbruck Promenade Concerts
July
The Imperial Palace courtyard is the rather grand backdrop of the annual Innsbruck Proms, a series of free outdoor concerts featuring Tyrolean brass bands and groups from all over the world.
Christmas in the Mountains
23 December
Wash sweet Tyrolean pastries down with mulled wine and enjoy the festive celebrations in ski resort Igls, 5km from Innsbruck. The Krampus run sees dozens of devil-like characters terrorising the streets, and St Nicholas parades through town with children dressed as angels, shepherds and wise men.ars directed at upcoming bands and the music industry more generally.
