The 15 Best Classical Concerts in Vienna

68 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.5 average  ·  from $11

Almost every night there is a choice between a baroque church nave, a palace orangery and a purpose-built hall, and the ticket rarely tells you which orchestra you are getting. These 15 state the room, the programme length and the seat categories, so you can tell the Musikverein evening from the chamber ensemble in period dress — both of which are worth going to, for different reasons.

“all of the performers were incredible, truly an amazing performance. however the seating is not great, i paid for category 2 tickets and still felt pretty far from the stage. the seating is on a flat surface so if someone tall sits in front of you you can’t really see anything.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 930 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $170

After-hours Schönbrunn Palace audio tour, 3-course dinner, and a Mozart and Strauss concert in the Orangery.

“Schonbrunn Palace is a must-see. But for that reason it can be quite crowded with selfie-takers and such during regular hours. This tour was a great way to experience the most important suite of rooms after the crowds had left. After the tour we had dinner in a restaurant on the place grounds. Dinner came with the ticket (drinks did not). It was good, nothing special though. After dinner we watched a concert in the Orangerie. We got the VIP option so we had front row seats. Concert was about 2 hrs total including intermission. Mozart first act and waltzs second act. Very good musicians who were obviously passionate about…”

14.Vienna Mozart Concert in Historical Costumes at the Musikverein

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 888 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $83

Vienna Mozart Concert at the Musikverein: Mozart-only orchestra, historical costumes, Golden Hall or Brahms Hall, and seating choices in 2 hours.

“Really cool experience getting to hear some of Mozart’s classics in such an iconic setting. The concert was very accessible — even as someone who rarely listens to classical music, I found it really enjoyable and well paced. The venue (Musikverein) is stunning, with incredible acoustics and beautiful design. The process of getting tickets was pretty smooth, and it was pretty easy to navigate once inside (other than the surprise intermission which was unclear). Definitely recommend it if you're visiting Vienna — even if you're a classical music beginner!”
