Eisenstadt celebrates 35 years of holiday play: A summer full of adventure!

The summer holidays may be over, but the memories of the Eisenstadt Holiday Game 2025 will certainly last for a long time for the 225 children taking part. From July 21st to August 14th, the state capital was dedicated to the motto “100 years of the state capital Eisenstadt”. This not only celebrated a unique anniversary, but also the 35th anniversary of the popular holiday care.

Over 60 different program items ensured a colorful offering that thrilled all the children. Mayor Thomas Steiner, who described the event as a “successful project,” was impressed by the high demand. The crowd was so big that the holiday game was quickly booked out. The 120 children were supported every day by 22 dedicated carers, many of whom had previously been part of the holiday play and passed on their valuable experiences.

A colorful program with many highlights

The highlights of the holiday game included visits to the impressive Eisenstadt town villa, where a journey through time through the town's history was undertaken. Here the children were able to learn a lot about the past, while at the same time discovering their creative side with exciting workshops on making soap, chocolates and lemonade from old recipes.

The sporting activities were also highly valued and offered a wide range of options for action-packed days with climbing, a ninja course, football, swimming and basketball. A particularly exciting excursion led to 2Beans in Kleinhöflein, where the children were able to trace the path of the cocoa bean.

Another highlight was the ÖBB Discovery Day with Christoph Hirschler and the traditional summer ball, where fashion from 100 years was presented. Excursions to historical places such as Forchtenstein Castle, Hof Castle, Podersdorf and the St. Margarethen Family Park rounded off the program and offered the young participants unforgettable experiences.

Insight into future development

The positive feedback and the high number of participants are a clear incentive for the city to invest in the future. As part of the preparations for the holiday game, the construction of a modern educational campus next to the E_Cube was announced. Mayor Steiner emphasized the importance of investing in infrastructure and activities for children and young people in order to continue to create attractive offerings in the future.

The anticipation for the next Eisenstadt holiday game is already noticeable. The period is planned from July 20th to August 14th, 2026. Registration options will open from April 1st, 2026 via the E_Cube website, which many families will already be eagerly waiting for.
