Vienna Women’s Week 2024

More than a week

In 2022, the largest Viennese women’s survey “Vienna as she wants it” was conducted. It shows the situation of women and girls in Vienna as well as their wishes and ideas for the future. Around 15,500 Viennese women took part and gave more than 77,000 answers.

More space, more time and more opportunities: this is what the Viennese women who took part in Vienna’s largest women’s survey want. The results are the basis for numerous concrete projects that have already been implemented (for more information, see frauenbefragung.wien.gv.at). The “Vienna Women’s Week”, taking place for the first time this year, is another measure that meets the desire of Viennese women for more low-threshold, free services and represents the City of Vienna’s commitment to promoting equality and supporting women and girls in Vienna in order to give them more time, more space and more opportunities.

March 8 has been celebrated for more than 100 years as a day of struggle for equal rights for women.1 The City of Vienna, its companies, districts and partners offer a wide range of events to mark International Women’s Day. The Vienna Women’s Week website is intended to make the events taking place in the week surrounding International Women’s Day on March 8 more visible. The program brings together more than 100 free offers throughout Vienna in 2024 and provides a compact overview of the diverse program taking place during this period.

The Vienna Women’s Week ends with the “Open City Hall” on March 8, 2024 from 16:00 to 20:15. As every year, you can expect a variety of information stands and a colorful program. You will also find the details on this page.

The City of Vienna stands up for women every day. The Vienna Women’s Service (MA57) finances and organizes projects throughout the year that promote independent living for women and girls.

We wish you bread and roses, all the best for International Women’s Day and lots of fun with the exciting program.
