The High End show is a favourite amongst many audiophiles and the hi-fi industry alike, with the MOC and surrounding area feeling like a second home for many of us. However, from 2026 High End moves to a new venue in Vienna.

High End 2025 will be held in the MOC Event Center from May 15 to 18, 2025, with the show's debut at the Austria Center Vienna (ACV) in May 2026.

We are told that the ACV is a “first-class event venue” following recent remodelling and is situated in the heart of Austria's capital.

High End Society points out that the new venue offers a variety of modern rooms in different sizes for exhibitors to showcase their products and technologies, with additional rooms and spacious halls available for exhibitors to set up their individual stands.

The ACV boasts 26,000 square meters of exhibition space on several levels in the main building as well as the adjoining halls, enabling exhibitors to find optimal conditions for their various needs.

The move was tested by those who took part in the Finest Audio Show Vienna in November 2023 with the organisers receiving consistently positive feedback with the current registration figures for this year's FAS Vienna underscoring the fact that the ACV is an excellent choice for the new home of the High End Show.

Stefan Dreischärf, Managing Director of the show organiser, told StereoNET:

The Austria Center Vienna not only scores with excellent exhibition conditions, but also with a progressive environment that will raise the level of the High End and ensure its success in the coming years. We are convinced that we can take the High End show to a new level with this move and we look forward to the opportunities that this change will no doubt bring.

StereoNET is looking forward to attending the show in this cosmopolitan city on the Danube River - not least because we appreciate excellent coffee.

Of course, there is also the fact that the Austrian capital is easily accessible and, as one of the world's music capitals, it provides the perfect backdrop for the High End audio show, which is all about excellent sound reproduction and music.

As a strong community, the High End Society is looking forward to the upcoming trade shows with high hopes, as the move from Munich to Vienna will mark a groundbreaking step into a promising future.
