We booked standing because the rest was sold out but quite honestly I think our view was better than some of the seats I loved how the young horses came on first and the show gradually moved on through stages of the horses training to the finale. I actually shed a tear because it was so beautiful! Only downside was it was difficult to find the right entrance for our area. We ended up in 2 different wrong queues before we found the correct place. Better signposting would be good

The structure was impressive, especially when you realize it is many years old and ghow many historic figures have attended performances. I especially enjoyed the symmetry and geometry of the formations and especially the salutes -

The event was a great confluence of class, antiquity, comfort, style, grace and precision. It was excellent to watch the outcome resulting from years of training. The facility, lights, music and performance was superb. Highly recommend!

Zu viel und zu lange Erklärungen in zwei Sprachen, zu wenig Pferdeshow. Teilweise durch die eingeschränkte Sicht bedingt. Erklärung sicher gut, aber auf Kosten der Vorstellung, die damit von 75 Minuten auf ca. 2/3 reduziert wird. Die Tradition des dunklen Pferdes unter lauter Schimmeln nicht eingehalten. Die Quadrille war auch sehr kurz.

Watch the world-famous Lipizzaner stallions perform classical dressage in Vienna’s historic Winter Riding School.
