These include iconic works such as “Wiener Blut” (Vienna Blood Waltz) or the polkas “Ohne Sorgen” (No Worries) and “Eljen à Magyar”.

You will enjoy popular arias from “Fledermaus” (The Bat) and “Csardasfürstin” (The Gipsy Princess), as well as the waltzes “An der Schöne blauen Donau” (Blue Danube Waltz) and “Frühlingsstimmen” (Voices of Spring Waltz).

Vienna Hofburg – Festival Hall

The Festival hall (Festsaal) is the largest hall in the 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.
