The first edition in 2018 was held to celebrate the 800th anniversary year of the city of Feldkirch. It took place from October 3 to 6, 2018. Ten projects by international artists, e.g. Ólafur Elíasson, transformed the old town into a large open-air museum at nightfall.[4][5] Installations, sculptures, projections on facades and floor as well as laser projections, mappings and light objects were part of the light art festival.[6]
