PIXELvienna is organized entirely by volunteers, and thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, we’re able to keep the event free for everyone.


CONFERENCE

The conference is the heart of the event. A vibrant meeting place for artists, students, and professionals from the worlds of animation, VFX, games, and digital art. Over three days, inspiring talks, workshops, and portfolio sessions by international and national industry experts offer insights into cutting-edge techniques and creative processes. Delivered entirely in English, the conference fosters learning, exchange, and connection within Austria’s and Europe’s CG community.


ANIMATION FESTIVAL

The Animation Festival celebrates creativity and storytelling through the art of animation. Featuring a curated selection of short films from around the world, the festival showcases the talent and diversity of both emerging and established artists. It’s inspiring, entertaining, and a reminder of the endless possibilities of animated storytelling.


NETWORKING

Beyond talks and screenings, PIXELvienna is about people. The conference’s social events like the legendary Party&Battle create a relaxed space to connect with fellow artists, professionals, and studios. Whether it’s challenging another artist in a drawing battle on stage or finding your next collaborator on the dance floor, our community spirit makes networking feel natural, fun, and inspiring.
