ausland is an event and production venue for music, film, literature, dance and performance and sound installations.

ausland hosts events, rehearsals, recordings, workshops, residencies and other artistic projects.

Independent of commercial interests, hypes or trends, we organise and support artistic projects in a variety of formats. Our program is curated partly by the ausland team and partly in collaboration with local organisers, artists and institutions.

ausland opened in December 2002 in the basement of the former squatted house project Lychi 60 and is still an independent venue run by a group of curators, artists, administrators, technicians, culture lovers and DIY enthusiasts, supported by a non-profit association.

We aim for a diverse and inclusive program, a space where respect, attention and consideration define the athmosphere.

For both internal and external organised events ausland requires a minimum gender balance, with a 50% or more FLINTA involvement, both on - and backstage. Going over that mandatory minimum is strongly encouraged.
