Top international artists including Patrice, Stereo MCs and Aura Dione to feature at Music Festival presented by Samsung.

From 14 to 21 January 2012, Innsbruck’s city centre will be transformed into one huge party zone with an action-packed programme at Medals Plaza . Every evening during the Games, the huge stage on Maria-Theresien-Straße will welcome artists ranging from Aura Dione, Patrice, Russkaja and Texta to 4-Klang, Jung und Frisch and the angelic tones of the Wilten Boys’ Choir. Young visitors will have plenty to do during the day-time thanks to the kids’ programme going on between 12:30 and 14:30, with media art, folk music and youth culture taking over from 17:00. Victory Ceremonies will be held every evening between 19:00 and 20:00, before international artists rock the stage of the Music Festival presented by Samsung until 22:00.
