On Sunday, September 27, 2026, the Viennergy association will host its autumn festival with a charity children’s flea market at the Europahaus Vienna from 1 PM to 6 PM. The proceeds from the booth fees and the donation raffle are intended to fully benefit the family of five-year-old Emil.

Emil was born with Down syndrome and neonatal leukemia a few weeks early and spent the first three months of his life in the hospital. According to the organizers, his development is slower than that of many peers. At around three and a half years old, he learned to walk independently. Since his spoken language is also developing slowly, he communicates, among other things, using signs.

A hearing perception training according to A. Tomatis is planned for Emil. Three therapy cycles, each lasting 13 days, are scheduled. According to Viennergy, the family cannot bear the costs alone. Therefore, the association, together with Light for Children, supports the donation campaign „Tomatis Therapy for Emil.“

At the charity children’s flea market at the Europahaus Vienna, more than 100 tables with toys, children’s clothing, books, and other items will be offered. Visitors can browse there and support the donation campaign at the same time.

Another focus is the donation raffle. According to Viennergy, material prizes worth a total of around 20,000 euros are available. Supporters include Nintendo, the Vienna Prater, Piatnik, Spielwaren Heinz, SK Rapid, and Tigersworld.

In addition to the flea market and raffle, there is an extensive program for families. On stage are Christoph & Lollo, the Lightsaber Battle Show, OKF!NE, and Marcus Schuh.

Additionally, various interactive stations are planned. These include a poker workshop, a climate puzzle, and a stand by the Charity Heroes. Food and drinks are also provided.

According to Viennergy, more than 1,000 visitors attended last year’s charity summer festival. A total of 4,500 euros was collected for Light for Children. Additionally, two minibuses full of donations in kind were handed over to families in need.

With the autumn festival on September 27, Viennergy aims to continue this donation campaign. The event will take place at the Europahaus Wien on Linzer Straße 429 in the 14th district.
