On June 30, from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., the MQ Freiraum will be open with free admission. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the MQ anniversary exhibition as part of an exclusive guided tour.

The exhibition tells the story of the MQ: from bold designs and heated debates to a project that repeatedly teetered on the brink of failure. From the Second Republic’s largest cultural construction project to Europe’s largest arts and culture complex, it was a conflict-ridden journey marked by discussions, political shifts, and media debates.

Several people examine drawings and plans laid out on a table in a gallery or exhibition space with more images displayed on the wall behind them.
