See a show at the Opera/Theatre

A wonderful experience to have in Vienna is to see a show at the Opera House, or one of the city’s many other concert halls. For these events, you tend to get dressed up, so it makes for a great thing to do in the evening.

Note that some theatres such as the wiener-staatsoper.at has an LCD screen in front of your chair allowing you to pick your language (assuming you can’t understand the default), but not all theatres and opera houses have this, so if this is something you require then check before booking tickets.

Visit a Palace

Vienna has some of the most beautiful palaces in the world and these can still be visited in the winter. Two of our favourite palaces include the stunning Belvedere and Schönbrunn. When visiting you’ll be able to view some of the exhibitions and parts of the palaces, as well as wander the gardens. Although the gardens won’t be quite as nice as in the summer.
