Schönbrunn Palace: Mozart & Strauss Concert with After-Hours Tour

What to bring

• Bring your voucher or digital ticket along with a valid photo ID to the Orangery entrance, as ticket collection is mandatory and strictly checked.

• Pack a light jacket or shawl, as the indoor venue can feel cool even during summer evenings.

• Have a printed or digital copy of the concert program or brochure, especially if you are a VIP guest, since VIP packages often include a personalized booklet that adds to the experience.

• Carry a small amount of cash if you are not a VIP ticket holder, as the cloakroom fee for non-VIP guests is €1.

What’s not allowed

• Photography or video recording of the performance is strictly prohibited.

• Outside food or drinks are not permitted inside the concert venue; refreshments are available in the concert bar.

• While there is no strict dress code enforcement, sportswear, trainers, and overly casual attire are discouraged. Wear smart casuals or semi-formals.

Accessibility

• The Orangery of Schönbrunn Palace offers full wheelchair accessibility, including ramps, barrier-free facilities, and accessible toilets.

• Public transport, like the U4 subway or connecting tram and bus lines, provides easy and relatively step-free access to the venue, making it more convenient than driving for many visitors with mobility considerations.

• Sign-language guides and other special accommodations are available upon request.

Additional information
