On September 25, 2026, WOW Rossau brought the Rossau business district to life and made it visible to the people of Innsbruck for the first time.

WOW Rossau is more than just a company tour! Twelve companies welcomed 80 residents of Innsbruck on four themed tours and provided very personal insights into their work areas, production facilities, and processes.

For one afternoon, Rossau became a space for exploration. The program ranged from a group tour of the business district to exciting tours on the themes of “Urban Brands,” “The Versatility of Concrete,” “Longevity?,” and “Light!”—culminating in a celebratory get-together afterward. Food from the Gringos’ smoker and Amon’s unmistakably smoky voice brought the “Wild East” to life for everyone, both culinarily and musically.

We’re thrilled by all the positive feedback and are already planning how to continue WOW Rossau in 2027. One thing is already clear: We want to keep showcasing just how much creativity, entrepreneurial spirit, and skill are packed into “Innsbruck’s Wild East.”

Relive the most amazing WOW moments!

Those were the four tours

The tour kicked off with a loop through the economic zone. This gave participants a first impression of Rossau’s size, diversity, and history. For example, who knew that until around 1920, Lake Amras was located where the Greif-Center and the DEZ stand today?
