VIENNA SHORTS is the international short film festival in Vienna that annually in spring makes around 300 films from all over the world accessible to the audience and the international industry in the best possible way – whether in the cinema or in the museum, whether in digital or virtual space.
The festival is a qualifying event for the Austrian Film Award, the British Film Award BAFTA, the European Film Award and the Oscars® and is one of two EU-funded film festivals in Austria. It is active in numerous international collaborations and was honored in 2014 with the Bank Austria Art Prize, the highest endowed award for art and cultural organisations in Austria.

In 2024, the MuseumsQuartier Wien will serve as the central contact point for VIENNA SHORTS for the second time. During the day, the Festival Center at Raum D and in the adjacent Haupthof is the meeting point for accredited visitors and venue for Industry Talks. During the festival, Haupthof is also home to the Milieukino, a truck converted into a mobile cinema by Odeon director Max Kaufmann. Here, for a discounted admission of € 5, political programs, among others, will be shown and all competition programs will be repeated. Live performances are held in the Ovalhalle, while open-air events are organized as contingency plans in case of inclement weather.
