Social Events

For Early Birds: Celebrating New Year's Eve
Those who are going to arrive early in Vienna, i.e., on or before December 31st, might be interested in the events organized as part of the so-called Silvesterpfad.

In the afternoon and evening of December 31st, the turn of the year will be celebrated with lots of open air events in the old town of Vienna. Points of interest include the square of the City Hall, the Kärntner Str., and Graben, the latter two are adjacent to the Stephan's Cathedral, the Kohlmarkt, which is adjacent to the Graben, and many other places in the old town area. It starts at 2 pm in the afternoon and lasts at least until 2 am the next morning. Stroll around and enjoy.

A special highlight of the "Silvesterpfad": Mozart's Fledermaus (Bat). The performance of the Staatsoper will be brought to you on a huge screen starting at 07:30 pm! If you didn't get tickets for the Staatsoper, be on time at the Herbert-von-Karajan Platz, which is to the right hand side of the Staatsoper, to enjoy Mozart's Fledermaus (Bat) on the huge screen.

At midnight the sky over the old town will be illuminated by a breathtaking fireworks display to welcome 2005!
