The Johann Strauss Ball will continue this tradition on January 27th 2018 when the Kursalon will open the doors for its splendid annual ball night where you can enjoy the historical atmosphere of the building. Enjoy this unique experience in all of our four saloons, each are characterized by the elegance of the building.

Between 1865 and 1867 Johann Garben constructed the Kursalon at the edge of Vienna City Park in Italian Renaissance style and thus in the purpose of Historicism. It was in this historical building, situated closely to the famous statue of Johann Strauss, where the Strauss brothers celebrated some of their biggest accomplishments. Thanks to events, such as dances and promenade concerts, this house has always been filled with the magical atmosphere of the Viennese waltz and "joie de vivre".

The "Salonochester Alt Wien", led by Professor Udo Zwoelfer, is one of the best known interpreters of classical Viennese music and manages to make the most impressive compositions by our "King of Waltz" Johann Strauss and the primary representative of Viennese music, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, even more unique. Our virtuosic musicians, excellent opera singers and enchanting ballet dancers present an evening full of Viennese charmincluding spirited sounds of waltz, polka, arias and duets, as well as operetta and concert solo pieces at the highest artistic level possible.
