The Imperial Gala Concert is the only concert series that takes place exclusively in the Palais Auersperg – one of the most magnificent baroque jewels in Vienna. Here, where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the Waltz King Johann Strauss, and many other composers once performed their dance music and operettas, guests today experience a complete work of art combining classical concert, singing, and ballet – which you can also enjoy with an exclusive dinner if you wish. The concert kicks off at 8:00 PM, while the optional dinner starts at 6:15 PM.

Travel back to imperial Vienna with the Imperial Gala Concert and experience a true “best-of” concert with the finest pieces by Mozart, the Waltz King Johann Strauss, Vivaldi, and many more in the historic Palais Auersperg.

This baroque jewel in the heart of the city was once the stage for legendary composers like Mozart and Strauss, and it's the only place where this special concert series takes place. The event offers a total experience that combines musical art with optional fine dining in a breathtaking, centuries-old setting.

The dinner is an optional pre-concert event and offers an exclusive selection of Viennese specialties. The dishes are chosen with the same dedication as the music and reflect the culinary landmarks of Vienna. Choose from a classic, vegetarian, or children's menu, all featuring four courses. A perfect blend of culinary sophistication and musical performance!
