CONCERT LOCATIONS
Wiener Hofburg (Festsaal, Zeremoniensaal)
Heldenplatz
1010 Wien

The Hofburg in Vienna is the former imperial residence. The Hofburg Palace complex was built between the 13th and 19th century. Six centuries of construction has strongly shaped the building’s appearance.
The different wings of the former imperial residence portray the architectural periods of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque up to Classicism and the Wilhelminian era.
Until 1918 the Hofburg Palace was the seat of the Habsburg Dynasty.

Wiener Konzerthaus
Grosser Saal, Mozart Saal
Lothringerstraße 20
A-1030 Vienna

In 1890, the first ideas for a “Haus für Musikfeste” (House for music festivals) came about. The idea of the new multi-purpose building was to be more interesting to the broader public than the traditional Vienna Musikverein.
In addition to the concert hall, the first drawings by Ludwig Baumann for the Olympion included an ice-skating area and a bicycle club. In an attached open air area, 40,000 visitors would be able to attend events. The drawings were not accepted. However, today an ice skating area is situated right next to the building.
The Konzerthaus was finally built between 1911 and 1913. It was inaugurated on 19th October 1913 with a festive concert attended by Emperor Francis Joseph I. Since then the Wiener Konzerthaus has held the highest cultural aims and artistic mission: «To act as a venue for the cultivation of fine music, as a meeting point for artistic endeavour, as a home for music and a cultural centre for Vienna».
