On October 26, 2026, Castle Taggenbrunn invites you to “ZEIT, DIE ZÄHLT,” an extraordinary evening that blends philosophy, literature, music, and personal stories. With the Festspiele VIP Lounge, this special experience begins three hours before the event starts—featuring exquisite cuisine and select beverages.
In “ZEIT, DIE ZÄHLT,” four extraordinary personalities come together: philosopher Richard David Precht, actress Larissa Marolt, actor Philipp Hochmair, and star violinist David Garrett. Together, they create an evening centered on life, time, life-changing decisions, and the question of what we do with the time we’ve been given.
Festspiele VIP Lounge – a special way to start the evening
Anyone who would like to enjoy the Festspiele evening in Taggenbrunn even before the event officially begins is welcome to visit the Festival VIP Lounge starting at 3:00 p.m.
Three hours before the start of “ZEIT, DIE ZÄHLT,” Jezeršek’s multi-award-winning cuisine awaits you here in a relaxed atmosphere. Enjoy an aperitif, select wines, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages, as well as cold appetizers, freshly prepared main courses from the live cooking station, and a sweet finale.
This leaves plenty of time to arrive, enjoy each other's company, and get in the mood for a special festival evening at Castle Taggenbrunn.
