Bright Spots

From twilight to midnight, from Brucknerhaus to the Linz Castle, the bank of the Danube is transformed every evening into a sea of lights. The art project "Lichtblicke" ("Bright Spots") brightly accentuates the characteristic buildings and bridges on the Danube for night owls.

Beach Volleyball

Beach volleyball has been one of the most popular new types of sport in Linz for some years now. More and more enthusiastic devotees are found especially among the youthful population playing this ball game barefoot in the sand. Balls fly across 31 beach volleyball courts in Linz, one of the most attractive of which is located directly on the left bank of the Danube near the railway bridge.

Dedicated skaters roll, glide and jump over half pipes, trick boxes, quarter-pipes, spin ramps and rails as they practice the skills of their challenging hobby. In addition to the skater park near the railway bridge, which was built according to skaters’ plans, there are also eight more skater parks in other areas of Linz.
