Superbude hosts Calle Libre Street Art Festival 2024

Superbude Vienna turned into a colorful playground of creativity as it hosted the Calle Libre Street Art Festival 2024. For one week, international street artists transformed walls and open spaces around the hotel into impressive works of art, making Superbude a true hotspot for urban culture in Vienna.

The Calle Libre Festival has become one of Europe’s most exciting platforms for contemporary street art. Founded in Vienna, it brings together artists from all over the world to create murals, installations, and live performances that blur the line between public space and art gallery. In 2024, Superbude was proud to be part of this movement, offering not only walls for the artists but also a lively home base for the festival community.

Guests and locals were able to experience the creative process up close: large-scale murals were painted live, colorful illustrations appeared in hidden corners, and spontaneous performances turned everyday spaces into stages of imagination. The atmosphere was buzzing — paint cans rattled, music filled the air, and curious passersby stopped to chat with artists, take photos, and soak in the unique vibe.

Superbude has always stood for more than just a place to sleep — it’s a meeting point, a living room, and sometimes even a stage. Hosting Calle Libre fits perfectly with this philosophy. The hotel doesn’t just welcome travelers, but also ideas, creativity, and exchange. For us, street art is the ideal symbol of openness and community: it’s accessible, free to experience, and connects people across cultures.

Beyond the artworks themselves, the festival created a strong sense of connection. Workshops invited young creatives to try out spray cans and brushes themselves, while panel talks shed light on the social and political power of street art. In the evenings, the rooftop turned into a gathering spot where artists, guests, and locals clinked glasses and celebrated the spirit of the festival together.

The new murals at Superbude Vienna remain long after the festival has ended — as a reminder of the time when creativity took over our walls, and as an open invitation to anyone passing by to stop, look, and feel inspired.

We are proud to have hosted the Calle Libre Street Art Festival 2024 and to continue being a home for culture, creativity, and colorful surprises. Because that’s what Superbude is all about: bringing people together and making life just a little more extraordinary.
