Innovative concerts by the Wiener Symphoniker
Bühne beim Prater-Picknick 2023

A concert hall can be anywhere: in a pub, in a cage or on the Kaiserwiese in front of the Giant Ferris Wheel! No orchestra is as deeply rooted in Vienna as the Wiener Symphoniker - as demonstrated by its unusual concert formats and venues.

Prater Picnic

Just in time for the end of school, the Wiener Symphoniker invite you to a summer open-air concert for the whole family in the Vienna Prater.

Beisl Concerts

At the Beisl concerts, various ensembles of the Wiener Symphoniker perform on one evening in many pubs in a street or neighbourhood and present themselves in a cosy atmosphere - without tailcoats, but with lots of music!

Wiener Advent

Contemplative, atmospheric and filled with tradition: there is no better place to celebrate Advent in Vienna than St Stephen's Cathedral. The Wiener Symphoniker traditionally perform their Advent concert here, which is broadcast by ORF into living rooms across the country. With renowned conductors, exquisite soloists and music from all over the world, they immerse the Viennese landmark in a pre-Christmas atmosphere.

Cinema:Sound

In their film music series Cinema:Sound, the Wiener Symphoniker invite a film music legend to the Golden Hall of the Musikverein every year to guide the orchestra through their sound worlds.

KAMMERMUSIK

Whether the Kunsthistorisches Museum, the Austrian National Library or the Wien Museum: the popular chamber music series by the Wiener Symphoniker accompanies exhibitions in Viennese museums. An exclusive guided tour is crowned with a concert on the theme of the evening.

Fridays@7

The perfect way to get in the mood for the weekend starts at seven on Fridays. The concert in the Great Hall of the Wiener Konzerthaus is followed by a relaxed musical finale in the Grand Foyer - the evening's artists playing chamber music or improvising jazz.

IM KLANG

For the concerts in the Im Klang series, the Wiener Symphoniker leave their place on the podium and form up in the empty parterre of the Great hall. The audience is invited to mingle with the musicians in order to sit in the middle of the orchestra, in the middle of "the sound".

Grätzl-Concerts

For their Grätzl concerts, the Wiener Symphoniker come to their audiences at new and unusual concert venues on the outskirts of Vienna.
