THAT WAS SPRING VITAL & ENJOYMENT 2025

Spring Vital & Enjoyment: Inspirations for a Good Life

From April 4 to 6, 2025, Arena Nova was once again dedicated to well-being, joie de vivre, and attention to detail. This year, numerous health-conscious individuals and connoisseurs gathered at the Spring Vital & Enjoyment fair. A special attraction was the brand new enjoyment market in Hall 4. The HochzeitStil fair and the forever60 Senior Fair also combined proven content with new highlights. With the spring-like fair landscape, there was something for every visitor.

The Spring Vital & Enjoyment fair has long been a fixed point for everyone who wants to recharge their energy and find inspiration. Numerous exhibitors present products and services related to health, vitality, mental strength, fashion, cosmetics, nutrition, and well-being. Visitors could get an idea of their physical condition through meridian measurements or sound wave therapy, and learn how to start spring vital and fit through free hearing analyses or beauty and fitness information: all offers focused on active experience and trying things out.

In Hall 1, interesting demonstrations and numerous lectures also took place. A varied and inspiring program awaited visitors on all three days of the fair. A special highlight was the belly dance workshop by Angela Szalai. Aerial acrobatics, aerial yoga, square dance, Italian fashion shows, and many interesting lectures were well attended on all fair days.

Enjoyment Market as a New Attraction

Completely new to the fair program was the enjoyment market in Hall 4. Here, gourmets got their money’s worth; upon entering the lovingly designed enjoyment market, one could already sense the culinary treasures awaiting visitors. Local producers, winemakers, and delicatessen manufacturers presented their delicacies. An offering of international delicacies and tastings invited visitors to enjoy with all their senses. In special workshops, experts shared their previously well-guarded secrets of new taste experiences.

HochzeitStil Fair – Everything for the Big Celebration

Those planning their wedding found everything their heart desired at the parallel HochzeitStil fair. Hand-picked exhibitors – from floristry to photography – were on hand for personal consultations in a stylish ambiance. The fashion shows were particularly popular, showcasing dreamlike wedding dresses, elegant suits, and the season’s trends. A highlight was the fashion show by Austrian star designer La Hong. Of course, enjoyment was also well catered for – with fine canapés and refreshing drinks from the cocktail truck. The lovingly put-together goodie bags for all visitors rounded off the HochzeitStil experience.

For the third time, the forever60 – the eternally young Senior Fair took place as part of the “Spring Vital & Enjoyment”. The event is increasingly establishing itself as Lower Austria’s fair for the active over-60 generation. The diverse offerings and high information content were consistently well received, especially the workshops and specialist information tailored to the target audience were highly valued by the public. The fair’s themes ranged from health information to mobility and further education, which is gaining increasing importance among the older generation, from language acquisition to university-level continuing education. In the “digitalfit” program section, workshops on specific topics were held continuously – from simple computer questions to helpful apps and internet scams. For the coming years, thematic expansions are planned, both in the exhibitor area and in the supporting program, based on the emerging focus of visitors.

Arena Nova Managing Director Gerald Stangl: “The four major fair themes were very popular with visitors; with the wide range of offerings, there was something suitable for every guest. The new, lovingly designed enjoyment market proved to be a particular crowd-puller, generating enthusiasm with active culinary experiences. We are delighted to welcome more and more visitors as regular guests with the thematic breadth of this popular fair and thank our exhibitors for their magnificent presentations.”

We would be delighted if you would join us again – or for the first time – in 2026!
