The Light Show of Creation in Vienna was one of the most unexpectedly moving experiences I've had in a long time. It takes place inside a church, and the way they use the space is absolutely breathtaking. Light projections cover every surface – from the high ceilings to the altar – creating a visual story of the world’s creation, step by step. Highly recommend it if you're in Vienna. You’ll leave with a quiet sense of awe.

I loved the show, really an incredible experience in every way, the lights of course, but also the church itself is a beauty and they make the most of that environment for a beautiful show. I would have liked perhaps a more cheerful music, but it is still very good. The ticket purchase was very fast, although until I got there I didn't see which seat I had been assigned.

Simply everything!!! The organizer of the event can't be held responsible for the weather and the heat on the day. I don't have any photos, so I can't add anything. But I can put it into words: My favorite moment was when a white bird (possibly a pigeon) flew in and perched on the edge of the pillar. Not everyone noticed, but I was just mesmerized.

Witness the universe's genesis in a unique 30-minute immersive light show at Vienna's historic Votivkirche, where reality and illusion seamlessly blend.

Get captivated by a delightful blend of light, color, and sound, coupled with a specially composed music score, creating an unforgettable sensory experience.

Delve into six distinctive acts showcasing the birth of light, the emergence of land and water, and the blossoming of life, thanks to state-of-the-art projection technology.

Choose between Category I or II tickets for a clear or partially restricted view, respectively, ensuring a memorable experience irrespective of your seating choice.

Fun fact: The Votivkirche has a total of 9 bells, 4 of which are still in active use. The largest bell weighs over 5 tonnes.

...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.
