A Special Liaison with the Hotspots of the Alps – Meissl x G’spusi Lech

Projects

The Austrian term “Gspusi” describes a (usually light-hearted) romantic liaison. In Lech am Arlberg, however, it has taken on a new meaning this winter – as the largest après-ski bar in Europe. With Meissl adding the perfect open-air vibes on top.

In winter 2025/26, Lech am Arlberg gained a new hotspot for celebrations: at “G’spusi – Alpine Bistro & Ice Bar,” elevated dining meets vibrant après-ski energy. The setting is perfectly staged by Meissl, featuring a umbrella bar solution that ensures uninterrupted party vibes. 

The following installation makes Meissl and G’spusi Lech a true perfect match: 

  • 1 Meissl large-scale umbrella, type MRS: rectangular design, 14 × 12 meters, 45° corner, 24 segments, total area: 148.4 m²
  • Ground fixing via flat roof flange
  • Lighting: integrated LED, indirect, full rib length
  • Infrared heaters 

…creating an ambient setting that brings people together – true to the spirit of a “Gspusi,” and also everything Meissl stands for! ; - )
