Lido Sounds

Arcadia Live and the LIVA Linzer Veranstaltungsgesellschaft are searching for something new - an unforgettable experience in the city center of Linz, on its urban landscape and waters. These nights will offer a perfect combination of music and culture right at the heart of Austria and Europe. Come to explore where the city meets sound – only here in beautiful Linz!

In 2023, the LIDO SOUNDS will be docking in Linz with an opening event that promises to be extraordinary. "Quality music for quality people" is the motto of Ahoi! Pop Sommer festival has been attracting fans from across River Danube since 2016 - and it's precisely this atmosphere that Arcadia Live and LIVA aim to create with their partnership by launching LIDO SOUNDS. It's going to be a celebration like no other - get ready!

Arcadia Live GmbH, the Austrian-German joint venture based in Vienna and part of the FKP Scorpio Group, provides exceptional live entertainment across Europe. Every year they organize a diverse array of events - from intimate clubs to Wiener Stadthalle - which total roughly 400 concerts throughout Austria's federal states and capital city.

Moreover, Arcadia Live will collaborate with INK Music in 2022 to take over a nationally acclaimed artist roster. With bands such as My Ugly Clementine, Lou Asril, Kerosin95, and many more resonating across borders, this venture has the potential to be highly successful internationally.

Since its inception over four decades ago, LIVA has been the leading institution unifying culture and sports centers in Linz. From acclaimed classical concert hall Brucknerhaus at Donaulände to the renowned Zeitkulturtempel Posthof am Hafen, from Kuddelmuddel children's center to city-wide stadiums beneath one roof. This event company has substantially impacted the life surrounding Upper Austria's provincial capital.

An array of remarkable moments marked the triumph of LIVA, such as the International Bruckner Festival, a breathtaking harmony in the Danube Park, the Linz cabaret festival, and Ahoi! Pop music festival. Moreover, the city hosted its marathon along with France's famous event - The Linz Danube Marathon.
