Starting in 2026, the renowned High End show will no longer be held in Munich but in Vienna, as the organization sees more growth opportunities there.
The High End has traditionally always taken place at the MOC in Munich. However, next year will be the last time it is held there. From 2026 onward, the High End will move to Vienna, specifically to the Austria Center Vienna (ACV), though it will remain in the usual month of May. According to the High End organization, the ACV has undergone extensive renovations in recent years and is now equipped with the latest digital technologies. The venue offers numerous rooms for exhibitors and several large halls. Spread across different floors, the building in Vienna provides a total of 26,000 square meters of exhibition space. Additionally, more halls are available, connected to the main building.
The City of Music
The decision to relocate might not come entirely as a surprise. Last year, High End organized its Finest Audio Show in Vienna, which was met with very positive reactions from exhibitors. A major advantage is that the ACV offers ample space to allow the annual spring audio show to grow. Additionally, the ACV is located in the heart of a city with a rich musical history. All in all, it sounds like a promising move!
