Open Vienna Shanigenten: Spring awakening when sunshine!

With the sunny weather and the approaching spring, Vienna opened the official Shanei-Garten season today! Mayor Michael Ludwig, together with Walter Ruck, the President of the Vienna Chamber of Commerce, and Wolfgang Binder, the specialist group chairman of the coffee houses, enjoyed their first coffee in the Diglas Café in the inner city. This event not only marks the beginning of the warm season, but also stands for the central role that gastronomy plays in the Viennese economy. "Our gastronomy is a central economic engine and an indispensable cultural asset," said Ludwig, and referred to the record -breaking tourism year that Vienna has experienced, like press.wien.gv.at reported.

The timeless tradition of the schanigentes takes on new dimensions in Vienna. Due to the latest regulation, catering operations are now allowed to operate their sidewalk gardens all year round. Of the approximately 3,500 sessions in the city, more than 2,200 were open last winter, which shows that this innovative approach benefits both companies and employees. Walter Ruck emphasized that this model has turned out to be economically sensible: "We see that this model is worth it", as well as vienna.at reported. The Viennese enjoy the freedom to dine outdoors and the first rays of the sun of the year, while at the same time there are strict requirements for all -year -round company to ensure that all companies adhere to the defined rules.
