Summer festival in Burgenland: fun and bets despite the funeral service!

Großhöflein, Österreich - On June 12, 2025, ORF Burgenland announced its program campaign for the upcoming summer festivals. The first festival takes place on June 13, 2025 in Großhöflein, where the moderators Michael Pimiskern, Thomas May, Sebastian Györög and Udo Huber lead through the event. The Radio Burgenland Band will provide musical entertainment and present a varied repertoire that encourages young and old to dance and sing along.

Due to a three-day state mourning, the summer festival in Großhöflein is held without the newly introduced "summer bet". This humorous betting campaign includes tasks that are specific for the festival location. The "summer bet" is announced in the program "Good Morgen Burgenland" on Friday morning, while the results are then presented in "Burgenland Wetter" to "Burgenland today".
