Why this is the correct answer
The Salzburg Festival was co-founded by composer Richard Strauss, theatrical director Max Reinhardt, and poet Hugo von Hofmannsthal, and has been held annually since its inaugural summer in 1920. It presents opera, spoken drama, and orchestral concerts across multiple venues in and around the city, with a particular focus on Mozart and contemporary commissions. Ticket demand and international prestige make it one of the most competitive festivals in the performing arts world.
