Show your colours!

The World Gymnaestrada is a colourul and intercultural event. Several elements in our communication support this message ...

Our Logo

The yellow spiral on a blue background typified the World Gymnaestrada 2007 and is still a symbol for this successful event. The logo for 2019 should remind us of this successful experience and also introduce new aspects and ideas.

A new shape and colour scheme was consciously sought – a very colourful five radial »spiral galaxy«. Possibly associated with: rotation, fireworks, beauty, harmony, symmetry, choreography, the meeting of five continents and unification.

Our Motto

The motto of the World Gymnaestrada 2019 is our guideline on the way to the event and the event week itself. This is displayed visually in communication as well as in the dramaturgy and choreography. This motto is a reminder of the motto used for the World Gymnaestrada 2007 - come together. be one. Although it is a reminder, it has room to offer new ideas for 2019.

The first part ... come together for 2007 remains unchanged and reminds us of the coming together of all people and nations to celebrate a peaceful sports festival.
The second and new part ... show your colours shows the variety and wide colour range of the world wide gymnastics community

By word, show your colours means to show ones' true nature. It is also an invitation to all participants to perform at their best, to present colourful shows, to show their variety, to make this a colourful festival. Even for the organisation team, all volunteers and the local people this is an invitation to show the world their hospitality and delight in greeting all visitors from all over the world!

Our Panorama band

An additional design element is the panorama band which derives from the Alpine world around Dornbirn and the Rhine Valley and offers a stage for the World
Gymnaestrada.

Significance and possible associations can be a backdrop and stage of the World Gymnaestrada 2019, the way to the World Gymnaestrada 2019, a gymnastics apparatus (ribbon/cloth) or a  depiction of a sequence of movement.

Our messengers

The figures symbolise the participants who are visiting us in 2019 – sportsmen and women in all varieties of expression, happiness and ability.

They are ambassadors, messengers, guides, decorative elements and a visible symbol of the anticipation for the 2019 event.

Our colours

A great variety, radiant colours and a vitality also from inside the colour areas characterises the event as multifaceted, happy and full of energy.

The main colour of the World Gymnaestrada 2019 is »colourful« as it again mirrors the variety of the event. No individual colour is preferred.
