Styria awaits 16,000 guests at the biggest ball in Europe!

Messe Congress Graz, Österreich - The Styrian farmers' association, the largest ball event in Europe, transformed the Graz Stadthalle into a festive spectacle on February 28, 2025. The conversion of the event area requires a whole week to blow up the borders with 40,000 square meters of ball surface for up to 16,000 visitors. With seven stages, almost 70 bars and over 30 musicians, the guests are offered an unforgettable experience, while the atmosphere is brought to life by 3,500 flowers and deco matters, as reports.

This year the ball is under the motto "It will be sociable with Styrian wine" to celebrate the regional wines and the Styrian culture. The outfitter and fresh supplier of the event emphasizes that the ball now has a significant economic influence with around six million euros. This impressive sum flows directly into the pockets of different industries, from traditional costumes to gastronomy to taxi companies-all of them benefit from the approximately 3,000 additional overall tax levies, such as Diesteirisches notes.

The musical highlight of the evening is the exciting appearance of Melissa Naschenweng at 11:00 p.m. in the Holz Arena. The Edlseer and the Lauser will also have the dance floor under control. For all dance enthusiasts, the focus is on Willi Gabalier's special dance with students of agricultural schools in order to underline the high importance of dancing in Styrian culture. The event aims to bridge the gap between city and country and combine people of all sections of the population and professions to celebrate together.

Another highlight is the more than 850 square meter delicacies, which comes up with regional delicacies, including high -quality meat, award -winning cheese and exquisite wines from 60 different Styrian winegrowers. The farmers' association is not only a glamorous festival, but also an important economic engine and a shop window for the excellent products in the region.
