Königskinder returned to the Tiroler Festspiele Erl in summer 2023, cementing its position as a critical and audience favourite: according to Der Standard, "The Erl Festival delights with Engelbert Humperdinck's opera Königskinder  ... Matthew Wild's production brings the fairytale events in Erl into the present without robbing it of its poetry."
