From September 7, 2024, Vienna will become the venue for the unique 007 ACTION VIENNA – an official James Bond collection that invites visitors to experience the fascinating world of the most famous secret agent in film history up close. After successful stops at the National Motor Museum of Beaulieu and the London Film Museum in England, the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, and the Saratoga Automobile Museum in New York, as well as celebrated exhibitions in Brussels and Prague, the 007 ACTION exhibition will be showcased starting September 7 in METAstadt, Vienna, promising an experience full of action and glamour.

A Journey into the World of 007

With the words "Bond, James Bond," spoken by Sean Connery in 1962, perhaps the world's most popular secret agent was introduced. Although the role has been portrayed by various actors over the years, the iconic vehicles and gadgets have remained a central part of the allure of the James Bond films. Visitors to 007 ACTION VIENNA now have the unique opportunity to experience these legendary objects up close and firsthand.

On 3,400 m², the exhibition will lead visitors through spectacular sets, divided into worlds inspired by the four elements: fire, earth, water, and air. Each room offers an immersive experience dedicated to legendary film scenes. The exhibition showcases the largest and most impressive collection of James Bond vehicles and unique spectacular items that have served the secret agent over the last six decades. Highlights include the Aston Martin DB5 from "Casino Royale" (2006), the Lotus Esprit S1 from "The Spy Who Loved Me," and the Rolls Royce from "Goldfinger" (1964) along with many other iconic vehicles, impressive helicopters, and other spectacular props from the franchise. Since sound effects and soundtracks always play a very important role in the James Bond films, these will also be presented in the exhibition to provide visitors with a unique multisensory experience.

For a refreshing Bond-style drink during or after your visit to this extraordinary exhibition, visitors are invited to take a seat at the 007 ACTION Bar and enjoy the décor.

"What I find amazing and have paid attention to is that 007 ACTION VIENNA truly offers something for everyone. Stylish and beautiful - the exhibition is exciting because all the exhibits are very spectacular and will inspire visitors to rewatch all these films and relive the action-packed scenes in which these props were involved," says Nicolas Borenstein, the curator of the exhibition, who oversees all elements and ensures that the audience is vividly entertained from the moment they enter the venue until the moment they leave with sparkling eyes.

Behind the Scenes of the Bond Films


Screens installed in the exhibition area show clips from movies in which the vehicles and props were used. Here and there, it is also shown how these iconic cinematic moments were filmed, providing visitors with a rare behind-the-scenes look. The exhibition not only offers insights into the iconic vehicles but also the secrets behind the scenes of the James Bond films. Visitors can discover rare production photos, storyboards, and interviews with directors and stunt coordinators that document the creation of the most spectacular scenes. The impressive stories behind the stunts and special effects are presented in detail, offering rare insights into the world of filmmaking. Visitors will learn how the Aston Martins and other vehicles were prepared for the spectacular stunts and what special adaptations were made to make them film-ready. A special focus is also placed on the innovative gadgets developed by Q, the legendary weapon specialist of MI6. From hidden weapons to state-of-the-art surveillance devices, the exhibition showcases how these technologies were used in the films and what real inspirations lay behind them.
