Classics of Austria Concert at House of Strauss with Museum Entry

About this experience

Book Classics of Austria concert tickets at the House of Strauss for an evening in the restored concert hall of 1837 where all four members of the Strauss dynasty once performed. Your visit starts with a glass of sparkling wine and entry to the Johann Strauss Museum, then a first class orchestra and a soprano play music by Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms and the Strauss family. Cinematic storytelling and a modern light show trace the rise of the Strauss dynasty as the music plays. The concert lasts about 90 minutes, and the whole evening feels like a small, very Viennese New Year's concert on any night of the year. What happens during the evening? When you arrive and check in, you are welcomed with a sparkling wine reception. You then have time to explore the Johann Strauss Museum at your own pace, with historical items and stories about the family who made the waltz famous around the world. When the concert is about to begin, staff guide you to your seat in the Strauss Hall. The programme moves from Viennese classics to famous Strauss waltzes and polkas, and projected images and light effects tell the story of the family between pieces. After the concert you can go back into the museum or stay a while in the hall. Where is the House of Strauss? The House of Strauss is at Döblinger Hauptstraße 76, 1190 Vienna, in the district of Döbling north of the city centre. The original hall was part of the former Casino Zögernitz, a popular dance and concert venue in the 19th century. Allow around 25 to 35 minutes by public transport from the Old Town; trams and buses run along Döblinger Hauptstraße, and the U4 and U6 lines connect nearby. Plan your journey in advance so you arrive in time for the reception and the museum before the concert. Seating, audio guide and what the ticket includes Every ticket includes the live concert, entry to the Johann Strauss Museum, the sparkling wine reception, the cinematic storytelling and light show, and an audio guide narrated by a descendant of the Strauss family. You choose between Category B, Category A and VIP seating; the category changes where you sit in the hall, not what else is included. The concert narration is in English, with German and Chinese subtitles. Dinner and transport are not included. The venue is wheelchair accessible and welcomes visitors with limited mobility and those with strollers or prams. Is this the right concert for you? Choose this concert if you love Strauss waltzes and want history and atmosphere along with the music. It works well for first time visitors, families and anyone who wants more than a standard concert, since the museum and storytelling add context to every piece. If you prefer a central venue, compare the Amadeus concert at the Künstlerhaus, the Mozart and Strauss concert at Schönbrunn Palace or the Strauss concert with dinner.
