The annual festival of independent spaces goes into its 2026 edition. All participating spaces collectively open their doors and invite visitors to explore a multitude of freely accessible exhibitions, combined with a dense program of special events and exhibition openings. This format creates a unique opportunity to experience Vienna's diverse art scene in an intimate manner.

Independent Space Index is an initiative of Viennese independent spaces, aimed at increasing the visibility of independent artistic production, strengthening solidarity among like-minded cultural initiatives, and highlighting their contribution. The network and its festival have been the largest joint endeavour of independent art spaces in Vienna since its founding and first festival edition in 2018.
