FREISTÄDTER FRISCHLING 2026
31st Freistädter Cabaret & Small Arts Award☆ Friday, March 13 & Saturday, March 14, each at 8:00 PM ☆ For the 31st time, the Local Stage invites you to the FRISCHLING. Four artists with their first or second program, who are still largely unknown in the region, are invited each year to perform an hour from their program in Freistadt. Unlike other cabaret competitions, where the performance time is limited to a few minutes, the Frischling gives artists the time to present their program, develop story arcs, and win over the audience. The first Frischling was won in 1995 by Gunkl and Otto Lechner, and among the previous award winners are prominent names such as Ludwig Müller, RaDeschnig, Paul Pizzera, Lisa Eckhart, and Benedikt Mitmannsgruber. The jury prize winner will receive a performance organized and financed by the cooperation partner AK-Kultur-OÖ in Linz.
Application: Please send an email with meaningful video material (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.) and a few lines about the program & biography by December to office@local-buehne.at
