May Day Flickr meet up

1. Mai

Next Tuesday, 1st May, a few local Flickr users will meet up at the May Day happening in Vienna.

Meeting point: 1st May, 9.30am, at Burgtheater (right next to the Tramway station)

The plan:

  • walking around at Rathausplatz and May Day demonstrations (Austofred is supposed to lead the 16th district Musikarbeiterkapelle!)
  • meeting again, have a short break, snack or drink at Mercato Rosso
  • continue to Nordbahnhof, formerly an industrial zone, now an urban development area and overall a great scenery
  • and finally we’ll head over to the Prater-Opening, either watching Schlager-Karaoke, Austrian cowboys and many more rather strange events or just relaxing on a lawn and enjoying some concerts.

Everyone interested in photography and curious about odd places like abandoned industrial zones is of course very welcome to join the group.

I’ve set up a Twitter feed where I’ll post our locations during the day, for people who want to drop by at some time or place.
