To Celebrate the launch of Austrian’s newest long haul route that connects Chicago and Vienna, Austrian Airlines and the Vienna Tourist Board are bringing the celebration to Chicago’s Navy Pier on Saturday May 25.

The event is called “Vienna From A Different Angle” and will include an afternoon full of Viennese Acrobats and Dancers who will perform vertical dance artistry on a 69-foot wall located on the lawn near the entry to Navy Pier.  There will be several shows throughout the afternoon with the first performance scheduled to begin at 1pm.

In between performances, the public will have a chance to try their vertical dancing skills and ‘dance the wall’ as well, so bring sneakers for traction and comfortable clothes that will not create a “wardrobe malfunction” should you hang upside down! 🙂

 

For those of you who may be in Chicago and are not familiar with it, Navy Pier is located  at 600 East Grand Avenue and is a fantastic spot to spend time shopping, eating and walking along the shores of Lake Michigan.
