Würth extends Salzburg Festival sponsorship through 2030

The German Würth Group will remain a main sponsor of the Salzburg Festival through 2030, extending its partnership by three years, the festival said in a statement Thursday, according to ORF.

The partnership began in 2016 and has grown over time. Würth has been one of the festival’s main sponsors since 2025.

Company founder Reinhold Würth, 91, said businesses had a primary obligation to protect and create jobs, but that supporting outstanding cultural institutions was also a way for the company to make a contribution. He built his father’s screw wholesaling business into an international trading group with more than 2,800 branches in 80 countries.

The festival’s other main sponsors are Siemens, Audi, Kühne and Rolex. Siemens extended its sponsorship contract by five years in May 2026.
