Red Bull Illume Exhibit Tour Is Coming To Salzburg, Austria

The 55 finalist images from the Red Bull Illume Image Quest 2016 will be making their next tour stop of 2017 in Salzburg, Austria. Regarded as the highest calibre of adventure and action sports photography in the world, the 55 finalist images from the contest’s 11 categories will appear on incredible 2x2 meter lightboxes at the stunning Hangar-7, for the 3rd time in the event's history. 

From its architectural elegance to its beautiful interior, the venue itself is a sight to behold. Home to a stunning collection of historical aircraft, Formula 1 race cars and other unique mementos from sporting history, Hangar-7 is the perfect location for the exhibition. True to the theme of Red Bull Illume, each of the world class images will be displayed and illuminated on the huge 2x2 meter lightboxes to make it a unique and unforgettable experience like no other. 

The exhibition is free to visit and will open its doors to the public from September 7 to October 8, during Hangar-7’s usual opening hours of 09.00 to 22.00. The event will also coincide with Salzburg’s art and culture festival on October 7, when the city’s museums stay open late into the night.
