Mörbisch Lake Stage is a must-visit place for anyone designing a performance venue.

Following the Bregenz Festival Stage in Austria, here is another lake stage to introduce.

Neusiedler See, located in eastern Austria, is an inland lake situated on the border with Hungary. Approximately 75% of the lake's area belongs to Austria, with the remaining portion in Hungary.

Every summer, a festival is held here. Unlike Bregenz, a different production is presented each year, and the ticket prices are relatively affordable. This venue also serves as a place for cultural exchange between nearby Hungary and Slovakia.

The stage is located on the lakeshore, but unlike the Bregenz Lake Stage, the stage set floats on the water. If you plan to visit, it is conveniently close to Austria's capital, Vienna, so staying in Vienna is a good option.

As you enter the venue, the stage, which is about 40 meters wide, is the first thing that catches your eye.

Surround speakers are installed at a considerable height, alongside the audience floodlights.

The Mörbisch Lake Stage has seating for 6,500 people. Looking at the audience chairs, you get the impression that they are simply and well-made.

In front of the stage, there are microphones for audience sound pickup and front speakers for the first rows of the audience.

On land, there are towers positioned at the sides of the stage and audience for stage lighting projection.

In front of the stage, there is water filled in to allow small boats to pass by, and a fountain facility is installed, enabling stage effects using water.

At the back of the audience, you can see the pin spotlights. Having around five pin spotlights is considered the minimum number.

Live broadcasts are conducted in theaters in our country. The broadcasting equipment used is somewhat modest for a live broadcast.

If you arrive early, a backstage tour is also available.

The stage set floats on the calm lake. The stage set is manually changed (without using machinery). Not using motorized machinery significantly reduces the cost of stage production. Using people instead of motors is more accurate, faster, and safer.

This is the first time I've seen an advertisement using a light aircraft. The surround speakers installed at a height have two side speakers, one for Near Field and the other for Far Field.

Considering it's a festival, there don't seem to be many tourists. Most of the attendees are local residents. It feels like a performance culture that locals comfortably enjoy. From the photos, you can tell that the audience is older. Their attire also looks like that of locals, doesn't it?

Neusiedler Lake is a shallow lake. If you arrive early, it's nice to take a walk on the bridge set up over the lake. As you walk along the bridge, you will come across a small island.
