don’t get confused.

PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Vienna’s public transport is quite convenient. On the weekends (Friday and Saturday) all of

the subway lines work all night long.

Additionally, there are lots of night busses (marked with the letter “N”), so you don’t have

to worry about leaving the party too early!

APPLE JACKS

The new and also Vienna-based shoe brand Applejacks was founded in 2019 by the inter-national dance instructor Jenna Applegarth.

After many years of searching for the “right” shoes, she decided it was time to step in and design exactly what she needed: a flexible, but stable and good looking shoe with enough room in the toe box. Don’t miss your chance to try on a pair and find out what Applejacks are all

about.
