Sophie, Kathi, and Maxi Wieninger are the third generation of one of Vienna's most respected wine families. Their parents built the reputation; they inherited the vineyard and the pressure to keep it alive. But instead of just continuing what came before, they decided to do something new with it — and that's where Wieninger.next comes in.
This August 23, they're opening a pop-up Heuriger in the Stammersdorf vineyards. One day only. Noon to 10 p.m., at Krottenhofgasse 155 in the 21st. It's the kind of thing that happens when someone in their twenties has access to a vineyard and decides to actually use it.
What You're Drinking
The wine list is theirs: SoMa (a white), KaSoMa (another white), and SoSé (a rosé). These are not the family's flagship wines — they're the Wieninger.next project, the label the siblings created to do something different. The wines are lighter, more approachable, made for afternoons under vines rather than formal dinners. If wine isn't your thing, there's fruit juice from the garden.
The food is Wiener Heurigenküche — the real version, not the tourist version. Oma Barbara (the family's mother) is cooking, and she's bringing her Erdapfelsalat, schnitzel, and a selection of small things that belong on a table outdoors. They've mentioned vegetarian and vegan options, which is how you know they're thinking about who actually shows up, not just who they imagine should show up.
Why Stammersdorf
The 21st is Vienna's wine district. Most people think of the Danube valley or the hills south of the city, but Stammersdorf — a grätzl of vineyards and low houses in the city's northeast — has been growing wine for centuries. It's quieter than the tourist Heurigen in the 19th, less crowded, the kind of place where you can actually taste the wine and hear the person across the table.
The Wieninger vineyard sits in the middle of it. On a normal day, it's just vines. On August 23, it's a table.
The Practical Thing
This is a one-day event. It's not recurring. It's not a permanent pop-up. August 23, that's it. You need to reserve — they're not taking walk-ins. Instagram DM (@wieninger.next) or email (wein@wieningernext.at). The fact that they're limiting numbers tells you they're serious about the experience rather than just trying to move wine.
Heuriger prices. You're sitting in a vineyard drinking wine made by people who live there. The math is simple.

Markterei Stadtheuriger — July program, Thu/Fri through July 31
- When
- 1 July 2026 – 31 July 2026
- Where
- 9th · Alsergrund
The Markterei Stadtheuriger runs every Thursday and Friday through the end of July, 16:00–22:00, in the converted market hall on Severingasse 7 in the 9th. Each week brings a different winemaker pouring directly from the producer—no middleman, no markup. The setup is the point: a covered market hall that stays open rain or shine, rotating Streetfood specials, the Heuriger tradition stripped of the vineyard setting and planted in the city instead. You arrive at the end of the working day. The neighbourhood is there. Wine comes in glasses, not performances. It's the format at its best—summer evenings, open bottles, the producer in the room explaining what they've made. The Markterei itself is one of Vienna's better event spaces: a real former market building, not a retrofitted warehouse, with the bones of its original purpose still visible. The courtyard fills easily, the covered sections keep the weather out, and the whole thing moves at the pace of a Heuriger—slow, indifferent to urgency, exactly the rhythm you want on a Thursday night. Free entry. Wine by the glass. The food changes weekly. This is peak season for the format. July is when the Stadtheuriger earns its place in the calendar. Go early if you want to sit. Go late if you want to move.

- When
- 10 June 2026 – 31 July 2026
- Where
- 14th · Penzing
Casa [Senza] Alberi — A Treehouse with[out] Trees, A Bird's Nest with[out] Birds — opens at Pavillon 21 on the Otto Wagner Areal on June 10. Rainer Prohaska, FUTURAMA°LAB, and Kollektiv Kaorle have built a walkable installation from reused materials: fantastical structures between treehouse, bird's nest, and architectural sculpture that invite you to climb, sit, and move through them. The work explores communal living, building, and how we appropriate and inhabit space — questions that feel urgent when the city itself is changing. The Otto Wagner Areal is the right setting. The complex — a former psychiatric hospital designed by Otto Wagner in 1907 — remains one of Vienna's most extraordinary places: a sprawl of pavilions and gardens in the 14th that feels apart from the city's rhythm. Free entry to the park. The installation runs through July 31.

- When
- 5 August 2026
- Where
- 7th · Neubau
The Architekturzentrum Wien's open-air film festival returns in August with the theme 'Demokratie Bauen' — exploring how architecture shapes democracy and how cities can plan more justly. The courtyard of the AzW, tucked inside the MuseumsQuartier complex, is one of Vienna's better-kept outdoor screening spots: intimate, not crowded, the light fading into the evening while you're still seated. Two nights: August 5 at 20:30 (An den Grenzen der Demokratie) and August 12. Free admission. This is the kind of event that reads dry on paper and turns out to be the best evening of the month — the sort where you arrive thinking you'll stay for the film and leave at midnight still talking about what you saw.
