The Alps-Adriatic Harbour Festival was once again a complete success this year! The "Krone" asked around among the visitors, musicians and stallholders.

ip-media Managing Director Gerfried Zmölnig speaks of a new visitor record. Over the four days of the harbor festival, around 55,000 people from the entire Alps-Adriatic region flocked to Klagenfurt's eastern bay on beautiful Lake Wörthersee. "A particularly large number of Styrian guests came to the harbour festival this year," said the organizers with great satisfaction.
