About the event

AWSM. KIRTAG SPECIAL took place on Friday, 21 August 2026, from 23:00 to 06:00 at Kattus Sektkellerei (Billrothstraße 51, 1190 Vienna). It was announced as the “AWSM. Neustifter Kirtag Special”, an afterparty to the Neustifter Kirtag – a traditional Austrian fair – for everyone not yet ready to go home. The motto was “Tracht meets House” (Tracht – traditional Austrian dress); the announced music was House, Afro House and Melodic House.

The party was to take place on two floors between the historic cellar walls, which the announcement put only ten minutes from Neustift am Walde. It was AWSM's first event at Kattus Sektkellerei, running from Friday night into Saturday morning. Many guests wore Tracht for the Kirtag. The dance floor was full until the party ended.

The venue

Kattus Sektkellerei is a sparkling wine cellar in Vienna's 19th district (Billrothstraße 51, 1190 Vienna).
