Most of our events will take place next to our flagship event on September 16-17. There we will occupy streets together with the organization space and place in vienna. Which has already focused on placemaking in streets in the last few years. Both at the events and at the flagship event, we will work with local grassroots organizations that already have a social impact to increase the sustainability of Parking Day (for example loginsleben, an non-profit association for health promotion). There we will offer activities with a broad spectrum from parcour to boxing to yoga. This will help us reach a broader audience.
Most of the interventions will take place in the outer belt of Vienna.
The next major event will be with MeiMeidling.
Park(ing) Day for Fitness is a two-day event concept that draws on the global Park(ing) Day invented by Rebar Studio in San Francisco, now held worldwide every third Friday in September. Within Park(ing) day, parking spots are transformed into temporary public places, be it parks, social areas, exhibit areas, or anything the organizers want to promote.
Park(ing) Day for Fitness builds on the existing practices and guidelines provided by Rebar, adding an element of a multi-sport day event to offer activities that promote active lifestyles and engage the public.
Park(ing) Day for Fitness events will be held in the third week of September (16-22 September)
