Concert
The concert takes place at a location that played an important role throughout Mozart's career: the elaborately restored Schoenbrunn Palace Orangery, located in close proximity to Schoenbrunn Palace. The Orangery was frequently used as the location for sumptuous festivities back in the times of the Habsburg dynasty, and this tradition has been kept alive. The musical performance of the renowned Schoenbrunn Palace Orchestra, accompanied by vocalists and ballet dancers, captivates the audience each and every evening.
Concert hall
On selected days, concerts may take place in the Great Gallery or the White Gold Room located inside Schoenbrunn Palace, at the Schoenbrunn Palace Theater or in other concert halls in Vienna. We will be happy to send you the detailed concert plan upon request.
