Vienna: Light of Creation Votivkirche

The Beautiful Lights show was absolutely breathtaking\. The combination of stunning light projections, beautiful music, and the magnificent church created a magical and unforgettable atmosphere\. The visuals were captivating, and the way they transformed the architecture into a work of art was incredible\. It was a peaceful, inspiring, and unique experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Vienna\

Light of Creation - mein absolutes Highlight in Wien! Enorm bewegend, so eine Kombination von Kreativität, Schönheit, unzähligen feinen Details, das spiegelt grundgelegte schöpferische Fähigkeiten in Menschen wieder. Sanft, kraftvoll, berührend, unaufdringlich. Es wird wahrscheinlich nicht das letzte Mal sein, das ich mir diese herrliche Darbietung angesehen habe.

Not being someone who attends church at all, I was concerned that I wouldn't enjoy the show. I WAS VERY WRONG! 😂 It was a beautiful display of technology and music set in a historic cathedral, and from the first crescendo and fall, I was hooked and even had goosebumps 😁 Definitely recommend. this experience.

Wir haben die Kirche bei Tage besucht und waren am Abend überwältigt, was die Lichtshow in Zusammenarbeit mit der eindrucksvollen Musik von Vivaldi aus der eindrucksvollen Architektur dieses Gotteshauses gezaubert hat. Ein wunderbares Erlebis.

The show was amazing, the lights, the music, its like a stories created with lights, sun and moon, deep ocean, wild animals, it is so nice , but you have to be careful to attend before 10 minutes of the show

It was Friday afternoon when I learned that my adult son would not be able to join me for a weekend in Vienna as planned. Since I was already there, my first thought was “I am stuck there alone for 2 days”. At first, it was very dissappointing as we had both been looking forward to it for quite some time. However, I quickly reasoned that being in Vienna for a weekend in early summer, on my own and without needing to adjust my plans to anyone else, is not being “stuck” – it is actually a proper getaway :) So I started planning from scratch, as the original plans were more about keeping the younger generation entertained than about me. That’s when I came across information about Light of Creation in Votivkirche on the Headout site. The description was clear, the location easy to find, and booking was simple – you just need to show your confirmation email at the entrance of Votivkirche and exchange it for a paper ticket. (I did briefly wonder whether they might not recognize a third-party booking but everything worked perfectly.) During those two days I managed to see and do a lot – including a concert in Karlskirche, rooftop lunches, long walks around the city, visits to Hundertwasserhaus and the Prunksaal, and even the pride parade. All of it was wonderful, but Light of Creation will remain the highlight of the trip. The experience of this event is difficult to fully capture in words. I can only say that it is truly “immersive,” exactly as described, and absolutely beautiful. While it is certainly well suited for families and couples, it is also a perfect experience for an unexpectedly-solo traveller :)
