Best bikers’ menu in Sölden - street food from local chefs

Because culinary enjoyment does not end on the trails of the most flowing nation in the Alps, once again this year we would like to present several culinary stalls offering varied delicacies. As part of the Bike Openings Sölden, both biking and pleasure fans can look forward to gastronomic highlights - local chefs create individual dishes by using regional products and preparing them sustainably.

Bike Opening parties

As diverse as our citizens themselves are, just as colorful and varied are the music acts that turn the controls and pluck the strings during the Bike Opening parties.

brsopening23_party_djphilips

DJ Philips
Musically, djPhilips is difficult to pin down into one genre. In the mash-up, indie, electronic music, but also hip-hop and other musical styles are woven together to form a tapestry of sound. The only important thing is the origin: from the underground, preferably new and on no playlist!

Friday, 09 June
brsopening23_party_mothers_cake

Mother's Cake
Founded in 2008, the Austrian psych-rock trio Mother's Cake moves in the genres of progressive rock, funk and hard rock. The band is currently touring across Europe with stops in Hungary, Switzerland, France and Holland before rocking the stage in Sölden!

Erwin & Edwin
Erwin meets Edwin, brass music meets electro. For 10 years now, the mission of the collective, which has always consisted of more than 2 people: to make people of all kinds dance and go crazy! After years of back and forth between English and German, the Austrian formation has now arrived at dialect. As once with the celebrated single NUDLSUPPN, they sing in their mother tongue again, quasi back to the roots, also as far as the energetic live shows are concerned. The anticipation of many sweaty moments is hard to contain! A lot will happen in 2023 - more concerts, more music, more ruckus. E&E stands for energy & ecstasy as ever!

brsopening23_party_djfu

DJ Fu (Wax Wreckaz)
DJ Fu always has the beats in his luggage and mixes the most diverse genres such as hip-hop, trap, drum & base like no other. With his DJ crew, the Wax Wreckaz from Innsbruck, he has been behind the turntables in clubs and at festivals all over Europe since 1999.
