Flex Vienna

Don`t you love small gigs?

Zina from Vienna

I am an architect by day and a theater enthusiast by night. And on the weekends, I am a translator. I don’t know how, but I still manage to have enough spare time to travel and enjoy walking my dog, going to concerts, hiking, or just exploring the city.

"I enjoy big concerts, but loooove small intimate gigs. "Flex" is one of the places in Vienna where you can enjoy something like that."

The last couple of years have been tough with no concerts going on. This is finally the year when I can dust off the tickets I bought two years ago and actually use them. I enjoy big concerts, but loooove small intimate gigs. This is one of the places in Vienna where you can enjoy something like that.

Flex is usually more known for parties and electronic music, and a younger audience. Maybe you would also rather enjoy something like that, but if you like gigs for a relatively small number of people, like I do, you will love it here.

Music-wise, it is mostly alternative, rock, metal, and punk – at least this is the kind I am looking for. But you can check out their Facebook page, and maybe you discover something you are really into and would love to see and hear. The space itself is quite interesting, especially from the outside. So you can enjoy a beer at the Donaukanal or in the city center and check this place out spontaneously.

Vienna Spotter Zina

I am an architect by day and a theater enthusiast by night. And on the weekends, I am a translator. I don’t know how, but I still manage to have enough spare time to travel and enjoy walking my dog, going to concerts, hiking, or just exploring the city. I am from Sarajevo and moved to Vienna in 2017. I moved because of a funny feeling called “Fernweh” (wanderlust) in German. And since I used to live in Austria as a kid (during the war in ex-Yugoslavia), I already spoke German and it was familiar to me. I call my favorite hobby “free therapy” – i.e., my theater group. Whatever problems I might ...
