Location: MQ Main Courtyard, free admission

WINTER-OPENINGIn cooperation with Red Bull Media partner: FM4

HOT PUNCH AND OTHER TREATS
Winter im MQ has been given a dazzling new look this year. As a modern design feature, the MQbis once again demonstrate the harmonious combination of historical architecture and contemporary atmosphere. Their crystalline structure and illuminated surfaces form an exciting architectural meeting-place. The MQbis are lit by specially produced LED cubes. Each cube is controlled individually and the geometric pattern of the cubes on the ceiling gives visitors a remarkable experience of spatial depth. In combination with lighting in the trees, this creates a unique illuminated atmosphere in the MQ Main Courtyard. Art, culture and a love of hot punch come together in the MQbis by Biosk, Café Leopold, Café.Restaurant.

SK Invitational feat. Homeboy Sandman, TY,  Lylit, Jonathan Hoard & Jahson The Scientist
The Austrian band SK Invitational, formed by the bassist and composer Stephan Kondert, brought international hip-hop legends such as M.O.P., Homeboy Sandman, Sadat X and TY together with shooting stars such as J Hoard and Lylit on its latest record, “Golden Crown.” Its music is inspired by the city of New York, where SK has been living and working in recent years. 
For the opening of “Winter im MQ”, the 16-piece band will be joined by additional guest artists in order to bring something special to the MQ stage—“large-scale Big Band sound bridging the gap between Vienna and NYC.”
