Light and music was brilliantly coordinated. Stunning visual and a treat for the ears, amazing to hear some orchestra music in Vienna. Lovely show!

...the location...the light show was good, but slightly playful, music in need of improvement, we had imagined everything to be a bit more abstract, more spacey...but definitely worth seeing!

The combination of light and architecture was particularly impressive. I also really liked the way the images flowed into each other. There should be more performances like this. Only the price was a bit too high for a 30-minute performance.

The church, the great light show, music was a bit monotonous, and unfortunately the ticket booking did not work out had to wait at the cash desk although everything was paid via Pay pal...

The church was impressive, but the light show was amazing! Simply overwhelming. I wonder how an artist can pull off this show..... Highly recommended!

How the structural features of the church were used and staged with the lighting effects. And then there was the fitting, sometimes dramatic music! It was a special and impressive experience for which we can only say thank you.

The Light of Creation immersive light show was absolutely spectacular! This is a must see experience if you are in Vienna. The Votivkirche is beautiful inside and out even without the light show, but we were blown away by this experience! Don't miss it, it is fabulous!
