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 -

Es war einzigartig. Man hat vor allem auch die Verbundenheit zwischen Mensch und Pferd gesehen. Superschön die ganze Aufführung und unvergesslich. Ein paar Glückstränen sind geflossen.

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!

Watch the world-famous Lipizzaner stallions perform to classical music inside the Baroque Winter Riding School at Hofburg Palace.

See riders and Lipizzaner stallions perform choreographed group routines and advanced solo movements like levades and caprioles.

Experience the performance in a setting designed for spectacle with classical Viennese music and a lighting concept created by artist André Heller.Choose between reserved seating or a standing viewing area to suit how you’d like to experience the performance.

Fun fact: The Spanish Riding School is the only place in the world where Renaissance-era classical equitation has been practiced continuously for over 460 years and is now recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage.
