New Year’s Concert

Since 1980, the Vienna Hofburg Orchestra has been celebrating the turn of the year with its guests with the waltzes and polkas of the Strauss family.

The orchestra is pleased to be able to play two concerts. One traditionally at 11am and a second for those who like to sleep in after a long New Year’s Eve at 6pm. The New Year’s Concert of the Vienna Hofburg Orchestra takes place in the grand Festival Hall of the Vienna Hofburg. A unique setting for a unique concert. The programme is rounded off by arias, duets and quartets by four renowned opera singers.
 
A New Year’s concert in Vienna, the cosmopolitan city of music!
 
The Programme
The programme consists of romantic waltzes, thrilling overtures and passionate polkas by the brothers Strauss and Franz von Suppé. Four renowned opera singers delight with arias, duets and quartets by Franz Lehár, Johann Strauss son and Emmerich Kálmán.
 
Just as Johann Strauss planned, and according to the tradition of all great Viennese orchestras, the musicians have prepared some musical jokes to delight the audience!

The Venue 
Hofburg Vienna – Festival Hall
The Festival Hall (Festsaal) is the largest hall in Vienna Hofburg with almost 1,000 m2.
 
The impressive ceiling paintings by the painter Schramm show the motto of Emperor Franz Joseph I. “Viribus Unitis” (With united forces). Eduard Veith and Viktor Stauffer have immortalized personalities from Austrian history in the lunettes and octagon fields below.
 
The Festival Hall was originally planned as a throne room but was never used in this form because the monarchy ended before its completion.

Seating
Like most of Vienna's historic concert venues, there are no numbered seats. You will be seated by the evening personnel within your category. If you booked your tickets together you will always be seated together. The evening box opens 30 minutes before the concert starts. We advise you to be on time.
 
The higher the category, the closer you are to the stage. VIP Category and Category A are the best seats, followed by Category B.
