5 p.m. Refreshment
with the Schwimmverein Donaukanal [Danube Canal Swimming Club]
(Meeting point at the MAK Foyer, fully booked)

Together with the Schwimmverein Donaukanal, we will walk to the Danube Canal and go swimming.
The Schwimmverein Donaukanal is committed to revitalizing the Danube Canal as a swimming venue in Vienna’s city center and has set itself the goal of establishing a new culture of river swimming on this inner-city arm of the Danube—a culture in which the risks of a flowing body of water are dealt with self-responsibly and considerately. Swimming in the Danube Canal allows us to see and experience the city from exciting new perspectives. The Schwimmverein Donaukanal strives to collaborate with all users of the Danube Canal to make swimming safe and possible in the future.
