A young people’s guide to Linz09 cultural offerings won over the jury in a school competition staged by Upper Austria’s inbound tourism agency.

“Tourism Makes It Happen - Linz 2009 for Young People” put the accent on the European Capital of Culture in this year's school competition staged by Upper Austria’s inbound tourism agency. The grand prizewinner was a young people’s guide to culture produced by a group of 15 students from Linz’s HBLW Landwiedstraße commercial school. They conducted a survey and selected those items from the Linz09 program that are of particular interest to youngsters.
A total of 26 groups took part in the competition, which was supported by the Linz City Tourist Board, the School Board of the Province of Upper Austria and Linz09.
