what can i see as a visitor or spectator and when should i come?

From 26 May to 21 June 2023, there is something to see every day in the Bschlabertal. You can find the programme on the website under Event calendar. The event calendar will also be displayed on the village square in Bschlabs and Boden. Follow us on social media too, as there are always spontaneous events that we only announce there.

Almost all medienfrische venues are barrier-free. For individual requests, please contact

how much do the events cost?

Many of the events are free of charge. However, we do ask for voluntary donations. At the cinema, we recommend a donation of €5 per film screening. We will be happy to point you to the donation boxes. With your donation, you support and promote medienfrische and the invited artists.

what are the we-guide-you-TOURS?

On 03.06 and 17.06 we start at the car park in Bschlabs at 14:00. The tours will be led by the medienfrische team and will provide in-depth insights into village life, the work of the festival and the artists. The tours are conducted for voluntary donations and last approx. 3 hours. The tours are organised like a relaxed walk and are not strenuous.
We also offer private tours for companies or families at your desired time. Please get in touch with

How do I get into the valley and how do I get out again?

There are various public transport connections. You can find out more about this under "How to get here". No-one has ever been stranded with us. There are always private cars travelling to Lechtal and Inntal. Let's look at each other. Car hitchhikers are welcome and if you do get stuck, our team will be happy to give you a lift.

Can I stay overnight with you?

Of course. There are plenty of places to sleep. The Bergheimat in Boden, the Gasthaus zur Gemütlichkeit and the Gästehaus Klug in particular offer plenty of space. When booking, mention that you are visiting the medienfrische and, depending on the booking situation, it may be a little cheaper. You can find information on the tourism association's website and on our website at opencall/accommodation.

faq's for artists

does my art have to stay in the town?

Your art remains your work and therefore your property. However, the idea of medienfrische is that something is left behind in the village or a gift for the valley. The works are to remain in the art storehouse in Bschlabs, which in the best-case scenario will become a museum in the next few years. The content is therefore already there and should form the foundation stone for a possible building in the future.

can i arrive by car?

Yes, of course. It would even be an advantage if some artists travelled by car. They could then drive to the nearest town (to the supermarket) from time to time and, for example, bring something to eat for those who are less mobile. However, as we are very mindful of our environment, we recommend travelling by public transport.

can i bring my children with me?

This is certainly possible in exceptional cases. We want to accommodate single parents in particular. Unfortunately, we cannot provide children with their own rooms. Everything the child needs must be paid for by the parents themselves. The children can eat with us - the catering costs amount to €15 per child per day. medienfrische cannot assume any costs or liability for the children. However, we are always happy for children to accompany their parents.

Are pets allowed?

Unfortunately, no animals or pets are allowed in any of our accommodation. Exceptions are possible, for example in the Bergheimat. However, this leads to increased costs, which must be paid by the participants themselves. Assistance animals are of course allowed.

is it possible to take part with little or no knowledge of german?

Yes, that is possible. We also speak English and some French and Spanish. And we are also very good with our hands and feet. You can find the application form at open call also in English.

Is it dangerous in the Bschlabertal?

No. But! We are in the high mountains at 1,400 metres surrounded by nature. Temperatures and the weather can change extremely quickly. Common sense is an important thing and if you are unsure, it is better to ask exactly how you should behave in the high mountains.

Where can I shop?

There are no shops or service providers in Bschlabertal. The nearest shops are in Imst or in the Lech Valley in Elmen and the neighbouring communities. The nearest pharmacy is in Imst, Elbigenalp and Holzgau. The nearest petrol station is in Häselgehr. We always travel to these villages and can get you the things you need.

What can I do with the Lechtal-Card?

On arrival you will receive the Lechtal Card, which is valid in your name for the duration of your stay. With this card you can use local public transport free of charge. Please check the bus times on the notice boards in the villages. The app or the website of the VVT (Verkehrsverbund Tirol) can also be used.
With the card, bicycles can also be hired for a small fee. You can also use certain mountain lifts free of charge. You can find everything else about the card on the website of our partner TVB Lechtal
